Experimental photos with fish eye attachment

I got this thing in the mail on 1 May 2003. I bought it for $33 on ebay. It screws into the front of the lens and results in a fish eye effect.
The ebay bidding started at $29. I put in a "proxy bid" of $39, but no one else bid so I got the lens attachment for $29 plus $4 shipping. The "brand" name is JC Penny. Maybe it's just a silly toy, but I think I'll have lots of fun with it. The photos are of sufficient quality for web use.

So here are some initial photos which I took in an effort to determine how to use the attachment.

All of these are with the attachment on a 35mm lens.

I had to go here for jury duty once. We just sat there all day and finally went home.

Interior of my apartment. 2 May 2003.
You can see all four walls. The extreme right is the west wall. It has windows. On the extreme left is the north wall. If you go through the door in the center and go straight, you enter the bathroom. If you go through the door and turn right, you enter the bedroom.
The kitchen area is under the lit light, behind a divider. The white thing behind (and right) of the monitor is the refrigerator. My TV is barely visible at the lower left.
