[DM-MUG] Finally, what to do with all those old chips and junk

[Bill Davis]

Reminds me of a bit of computer-part sculpture I made a few years  
back when we moved into our current offices.   The folks assembling  
the wiring sockets for computers and phones had screwed up one of the  
sockets and had left the little circuit board (about the size of a  
postage stamp) lying on the floor.  One side had  thelittle gold  
wires that are inside an Ethernet or phone socket sticking up like a  
scorpion's tail, and the other side had six or eight little plugs  
sticking out like legs.  They look almost like thin closed claws.   
Reminded me instantly of a bug or a scorpion.  So I bent two of the  
claw-legs out like the front claws on a scorpoion and voila!  Instant  
e-scorpion. It's still sitting on top of my monitor.
