When using a microphone headset with a foam ball distortion damper, always flip the mic up above eye level before lighting a smoke.

Don't fill the cup too full when setting it in that handy slide-out cup holder.

Don't spill the super-glue into your keyboard.

Unplug all the cords before moving the computer.

When the little man tells you that you have mail, don't bother going outside to check - he's never right.

Always put on your sense of humour before turning on the Mudcat interface. I keep forgetting that one.

Check where the dog is after you've logged off and just before you push the chair back to stand up..

It's useful to have spare parts, like a new keyboard, handy.

When signing off from Mudcat Forum, don't use the screen for toilet paper.

Don't stick a USB cable into one or more of your bodily orifices. The technology hasn't advanced that far yet.

A hammer? No! A sledge hammer. I have a 20 pounder for driving fenceposts. It'll even take out a Mac.

I know a guy who cut out the word "Any" from a magazine and glued it to the Enter key, cause he got tired of his wife asking him did it matter what key she pressed. She was happy with the addition to the keyboard.
