    Yeah, I was going to mention that the ShamWow guy was recently arrested for beating up a hooker who allegedly bit his tongue and wouldn't let go. Classy guy.

    4/8 UPDATE: Crime scene photos show bloody aftermath of ShamWow slugfest MARCH 27--Meet Vince Shlomi. He's probably better known to you as the ShamWow Guy, the ubiquitous television pitchman who has b

        Seriously watch this.

          While I do not condone nor agree with what he does with his personal life I do believe that everyone has some skeletons hiding in their closet. Some just come out more sooner than later.

            I am guilty as well.

            The Stealth Sound Amplifier-got it off Feebay.
            Magic Putty-does that work? I wanna try it. I saw it at Michael's or Target.
            Moon sand - got it at Target. Fun to play with but it's messy.
            Purchased some kind of steam cleaner. Never used it. What a waste of money.
            Purchased some kind of steamer for ironing out clothing. Used it once or twice.
            Purchased those rug skates at Target. Tried them, they don't work. Just get a pair of roller skates.
            Purchased those moonwalk shoes at ToysRUs. They look like fun (kids use them). Just don't snap your ankles off their base.

            I'm sure there's tons more I'm forgetting.
            Those who look outside dream. Those who look within awake.
            Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness

            To do list:
            1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
            1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;

              That reminds me. I did buy the magic putty to. I did not buy it from the infomercial. I bought mine from a local store. I like it for making molds and misc. pieces for Mego customs. That is my opinion though. I am sure that they are better products that I have yet to use. I am just a novice to the customizing scene. It works for what I want it to do for now.

                You might eventually want to replace the blade one day though...but it's not expensive.

                  Yeah...they should come up with a juicer that's a lot easier to clean.

                      HA HA...I almost forgot! I bought that thing that you can cut hair and vaccuum at the same time. It works brilliantly though, especially if you have wiggly boys. I used it until the blades wore out...and I never bothered to get new blades. My dad is a barber, so he just cuts the guys' hair.

                          My wife bought the 4 shamwows and got the 4 free. That was about two months ago and they are all in the garbage already. They don't seem to vacum up water like in the commercial. The worst part is once you get them wet, they stink and nothing will take the moldy stink out.
