Some keyboards allow mapping to other keys, if you have one of those then you can set up the useless Windows key to be the N key.
If you dont have that, and odds are most folks wouldn't, then you can hold down the ALT key and press 78 or 110 from the numpad. (for ascii anyway, if you are unicode I am not sure what it is)
Sadly that is about all you can do short of getting a new keyboard (that I know of anyway).

I usually keep a couple of spares, Walmart has keyboard mouse combos for as low as 12 bucks U.S. 
BTW: you should have posted this in the Jesters room. I laughed so hard I almost wet myself

If you are running Windoze, go to Control Panel/Accessibility Options.
Select Filter Keys/Settings and check "Ignore repeated keystrokes".
Good Luckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.

BTW, Angel... don't eat boston creame donuts over your keyboard. Your keys won't stick so often.
