WD-40

I had no firelighters, but my fire is now well lit. Thanks, WD40.

The wonders of technology.

So there's a truly epic thunderstorm going on here right now. I unplugged my laptop when it started, since I have enough troubles with power cables exploding without adding in a lightning strike. And sure enough, the power has gone out, but here I am, typing away, and still accessing the internets just fine, using my mobile phone as a wifi modem.

Really, I don't think humanity has any more evolving to do.

Warmth.

Does anyone else out there use their iron as a handy little heater?

It's a good idea.
