Phil McKraken, of Halethorpe, MD, grew tired of people asking him if "he had a mouse in his pocket" whenever he referred to his friends and himself engaging in an activity together. When he would say to his friends, "Hey we better get to the store", they would ask him if he "had a mouse in his pocket" to justify why he said "we" instead of just mentioning that he himself was going to the store. Problem solved now that Phil purchased a mouse to carry around in his pant's pocket.
