Cursor jiggling script

Anyone who reads xkcd (all of yall, right? :) ), you'll recall this comic: http://xkcd.org/196/. It's 3:30 in the morning here, so I thought I'd try a script like that.

Picture 14 is what was left of The Palace Amusements Arcade before it was torn down and condos stand in its place. Google Asbury Park, NJ boardwalk and you'll find a grand history of this once famous arcade. I went there as a child and it was sad to see this go away. Thanks for the compliment.
