This one is a tiny MacGyverism, perhaps lame, but I thought I'd share it with you anyway. At work, we were hanging Christmas decorations on our tree when we ran out of ornament hangers. Everybody was looking around, wondering what to do, when I said, "How about a paperclip?" I bent it and shaped it to look like a wire ornament hanger, and it worked. People were impressed, especially this one girl I work with who knows I'm a MacGyver fan. She knew exactly where I got the idea.
"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer."
