TV Buddy Universal Remote Control/Bottle Opener. I only wish that I had found this in time for The $50 Prize Contest.

That exact remote control, sans bottle opener, can be bought at any discount store for about $3. Is the piece of metal on the back really worth $17?

Oh God, it's from X10 too. I just noticed that. Talk about a guaranteed no-sale. I don't do business with spammers.

As long as I'm hogging the thread, here's another great find: the Wild Sausage Sampler. Venison! Boar! Rabbit! Alligator! Only $38.25! Sorry, all sold out of penguin.

X10!? You're just encouraging them.

Actually, aaron, if you'll look closely, you'll see the sampler contains 'Aligator'. I can only conclude this is some sort of imitation alligator composed primarily of Muhammed Ali's flesh.

See, what they really need to do is make a swiss arm knife or a leatherman with a remote built-in. Talk about the ultimate father's day gift.

Wow, thanks. I don't see X10.com often enough.

Gee I guess that' one of the detriments of blocking X10 in your host file. I don't get to see all of the other wonderful assortment of product they make.

Darn.
