Do mouse pads wear out?

Excellent!
My first line of defense is usually... ignore it, it'll go away.

So I took your advice and blew into the hole. It worked, so if some is good, more is better, right? I gave it a good ******* with the air compressor and it is working like new.

Now my bride is telling me i should have sucked it out because blowing just spreads it around. I'm not sure if i won this round or not.

Your reference to your wife as 'my bride' leads me to believe your life as a married couple is near the beginning...

You will soon learn that she IS ALWAYS RIGHT... trying to prove otherwise will only prove her more right, she wins. It's that simple. Get used to it, go along with it... life is much easier that way... crow can taste great with the proper cooking methods and whatever seasonings she tells you to use! *grin*

As to any other word play and possible innuendo, I'm gonna leave that one go... but maybe she should demonstrate the 'proper way to clean a mouse' just for you, privately. *grin*

Hmm, you've given me an idea....

Oh, and we just calibrated our 32nd anniversary. Time flies when you're having fun.

Excellent! Congrats on the years together... too many couples loose that 'zest' these days! My hat is off to you both!

I got tired of having to relocate the mouse constantly when you run out of arm and finally go a "trackball type". All the cursor movement is controlled with the thumb and the mouse remains stationary. I like it but most folks who use the regular mice find it difficult. It does take a bit of getting used to but once you get used to it, you wont go back to a regular mouse. It does require me to pop out the ball occasionally to clean it and the sensors inside.
