New novelty toilet paper that looks like tickertape features the stock prices of dead or dying dot-coms. It's the latest addition to the memorabilia craze surrounding failed Internet companies. Folks are anxious to scoop up cup holders, mouse pads, even stock certificates of out-of-business Web companies. The souvenirs, however, don't necessarily have any resale value; the toilet paper, according to its entrepreneurial inventors, is being scooped up by folks who gambled and lost on the Net or know someone who did and want to poke a little fun their way.
