I can't remember the name of this kitchen tool/small appliance.

I keep thinking of the word "diffuser" but nothing is coming up on google for me. It's like a metal rod, maybe 6 inches long, that you plug in and can put into a glass of hot water or other liquid, to boil it without using a stove.

Thanks for any help!

EDIT: found - IMMERSION HEATER

My mom found this thing buried outside (part of it was sticking out of the ground). We don't know how long it's been there; we've lived in this house three years (four in December), so we don't know if it was buried before then or what. We have no idea what it is, however. Anyone know?

There was this website that had various timed tests to see how feminine/masculine you were. I remember one of the tests was that they gave you a picture with various objects in it, and you could look at it for a certain amount of time, and then they moved some of the objects around and you had to pick which ones were in different places. Another ( Read more... )

I have a user pic that I made from a picture I downloaded from the internet years ago. Of course, I've lost the original picture and have long forgotten the artist/photographer.

Does anyone remember or ever played a games that was a long hidden clues/mystery/puzzle game where you started off locked in a single room and you have to find the key to get out and the game goes on for hours and there are tons of challenges/obstacles. Hotel Dusk, the Nintendo DS game is very similar to it. I remember someone referring me to it on ( Read more... )

This is from the 80's or the 90's. It was a Mickey Mouse game for a computer, I believe it was a Commadore 64 but don't quote me on that. In the game, I think you started out at Mickey's house and could walk around and water his plants and stuff and you could go into the bathroom and he would look at himself in the mirror and make funny faces at ( Read more... )

I bought this from this lady at my temple, and she didn't tell me what it was, but I decided to by it anyway. It was only five dollars. ahaha

My mother believes it's an old desk set, but what are all the little spaces for?

Hello all!

My father is looking for the meaning of a symbol on his volt-ohm meter. It is an equilateral triangle, with a point straight to the right, and then a cross on the right, kind of like this: -|>|- but with the lines connected. The symbol is on the "selector switch" and is green.

Google was no help, and any suggestions are appreciated!

I used to play this computer game when I was in elementary school computer class, so we're talking about 1996, and all it involved was making these hamsters zoom around on a track. The object was to not make the hamster fly off the track or run into another hamster ( Read more... )
