Giggsy still plays for United. I really like this one. And here's one for The Pink Superhero.

I hope it's not much longer that we need the mouse pad as accessory. This is my mouse pad. thankfully at work I don't need one because the desk is smooth and the mouse is good.

Wed, 19 Sep 2012 08:51:29 +0000 c605056@http://metachat.org Ever since mice lost their balls I’ve used paper from my laser printer. It protects my desk from wear, is so thin that it doesn’t make my wrist bend any further upward (as the old foam ones did), and I use the far edge/corners to jot down notes related to the current project or when on the phone, etc. When the paper gets wrinkled and grotty I save any needed notes and get a fresh sheet. I don’t do this often (not on first signs of wear) so I’m not wasting a ton of paper, especially when you consider that I’m getting dual use as a scratch pad. (I often let them get pretty worn out, but in realty they’re no more unhygienic than most people’s mouse pads even if the paper looks bad toward the end.)
