Sounds Fishy to Me

Did you know that WD-40 will take spray paint off any vehicle without damaging the paint job?

WD-40 Water Displacement #40, better known as WD-40, was the result of a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. It was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a water displacement compound.

They were successful with the fortieth formula, thus
WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts.

Ken East, one of the original founders, says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you. In fact, the basic ingredient is FISH OIL!!

WD-40 will also clean a spotty shower door whether it's glass or plastic, or try it on your stove top. You'll be amazed!

Here are some other uses:

The Tilty

A smart new idea in sippy cups...

The Tilty, by Kiley Madison, Inc. is a BPA-free and phthalate-free sippy cup designed around the simple idea that the less a child has to tilt a cup to get liquid to their lips, the easier it is to drink without spilling.

The angle allows liquid to flow more freely with a smaller overall weight and quantity of liquid: it holds seven ounces when full.

The cup and lid snap together cleanly and in one clear position, thanks to a notch-and-tab design. This is necessary because of the ramp that guides liquids to the child's mouth.

Tilty represents a simple yet new and useful idea in sippy cups. You can buy a set of two Tilty cups for just $6.00 here.

Socket Deer

Why didn't I think of this...

Nendo brings us these electrical outlet covers,
produced by AU, that let you put your mobile
phone on the wall as it recharges.

The antlers for all three types of deer are the
perfect shape to hold things. The tough
urethane rubber holds handsets tightly,
and also protects the antlers from
breakage should you bump into them.

Socket-deer can also be used as a cover
for light switches, and the antlers make
an excellent hook for keys or accessories.
