How to Clean Your Mouse Ball
The Truckin Bozo read this on his show & I thought it was worth putting up here.
Apparently this was a real memo sent at a computer company to its employees in all seriousness.  It was sent to all field engineers about a computer peripheral problem.
The author of this memo was quite serious.  The engineers rolled on the
floor!(especially note last sentence)
Subj: Replacement of Mouse Balls
If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may need a ball replacement.  Mouse balls are now available as FRU (Field Replacement Unit.).  Because of the delicate nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should only be attempted by properly trained personnel.
Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining the
underside of the mouse.  Domestic balls will be larger and harder than
foreign balls.
Ball removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacture of the
Mouse.
Foreign balls can be replaced using the pop-off method.  Domestic balls
are replaced by using the twist-off method.
Mouse balls are not usually static-sensitive; however, excessive handling
can result in sudden discharge.
Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately.
It is recommended that each person have a pair of spare balls for
maintaining optimum customer satisfaction.
Any customer missing his balls should contact the local personnel in
charge of removing and replacing these necessary items
