I recently saw an episode of MythBusters where Adam and Jamie were testing the various methods of escaping from a car submerged in water. They weren’t able to open the door, or kick out the window (even with steel toe boots!) - but they tried a simple spring loaded center punch from Adam’s toolbox, and it broke the window immediately. If you’re planning on driving your car off a bridge (it does happen!), then it might be a good idea to keep a center punch in your glove compartment!

One thing I’ve always done is buy GP AAAs and AAs for my gadgets and cameras. I’ve got GPs that are at least five years old and are still used daily. The best thing about GPs is that they’re really cheap if you buy them from a Hong Kong seller.

The new My Neighbor Totoro wallets are one of the cutest Studio Ghibli things I’ve seen in a while - and unlike most of the other Studio Ghibli merchandise I end up buying (which is a lot!), the wallet is actually practical and is something I can use everyday. How much did it cost? $2 + shipping, nice!

If you like tattoos (or chicks with tattoos), then you’ve gotta love Miami Ink’s Kat Von D - but all this sexy Kat Von D merchandise isn’t going to be around forever, so if you want something, buy it now.

There’s some great clothing available for the beautiful little Helen Kish dolls - there’s even people hand making their own custom outfits.
