I have been using the old 9 volt plug in thing from my old sega master system from the 80's for my casio keyboard (which, though bought a few years ago is also "from the 80's" genetically)

I also have this tape of some hotshot guitar guy that I use only to tune my guitar to. 


anyone have any things like this going on?

I buy bits of jewelry from Ebay that comes in these little sparkly pouches, I then take the ribbons off and tie them in my hair.  TeddyR

I use duct tape to repair almost everything.
I use a Bowie knife as a back scratcher.
I save plastic containers from cool whip and such to use as storage containers.

I use a fork for a back scratcher.
I used to use it to pick dirt out from under my fingernails, but then my mom got me one of those teeny weeny little Swiss army knives with a nail file in it.

I've heard duct tape is good for just about anything, except repairing your heating ducts.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
