I was recently clued in to a site that randomly generates product ideas. You can check it out for yourself. Just put in a new name in the box and press return. Here's what I got for Daniel:

"Daniel is a hole-punch that swears! It is powered by a single hamster and destroys household pests."

Well, I do swear.

"Jenny is a fizzy drink that sorts your mail, can disable electrical hardware and hovers three feet from the ground."

The levitation thing she does is pretty cool. I will not comment on Jenny's handywoman skills.

Speaking of levitating, I was once convinced by some co-workers to buy a "How To Levitate" video. To quote my friend Steve Melmed, "It will be the best $10 you will EVER spend". It was just after I finished watching that video that I realized I was a complete tool. Needless to say, my ability to hover above the ground is almost non-existent. I did fool a couple people with my little trick, but I don't do it anymore. Frankly, the thought of being really into Magic is kind of sad.
