That mouse has not "expired," he's just pinin' for the fjords...





> Don't use cutlery Mike.  For The Bells of St. Mary's I suggest:
> 1) Get yourself twenty-three Norwegian white mice. 
> 2) Train the mice to squeak at a selected pitch. 
> 3) Arrange the mice on a rack in the correct order.
> 4) Use two mallets and strike the mice on the head.
> 5) Strike the mice in the proper sequence and they will squeak 'The 
> Bells of St Mary's'.

> Playing the Mouse Organ requires some special mallet technique.
> A squashing sound may indicate that you are striking the heads with 
> too much velocity.  If no sound is produced on subsequent strikes, the 
> mouse may have expired.  Adjust the head azimuth and try again.  You 
> may have stunned the mouse by hitting him on the head repeatedly.  
> Norwegian white mice "stun" easily.  (Or he might be tired and shagged 
> out following a prolonged squeak).
