it takes 2 to mouse around

[LeiZaK]

There?s a big plasma screen in this hospital emergency room that?s used as a tracking board, and the PC it?s attached to is in a nearby closet. An ER nurse watches as IT pilot fish pulls the mouse through the doorway to adjust the active window on the screen. ?We didn?t know that the mouse cord could stretch that far,? nurse tells fish. ?Whenever we want to use the mouse, we?ve used two people -- one moving the mouse blindly, the other yelling ?right,? ?left,? ?up? or ?down.? ?

Yep. The 'story' in the OP ran on Shark Tank's mailing list a day or two ago.
