Paging Mr. MacGyver

(Note: the following is a post that I actually wrote about two months ago... but for some reason, Blogger saved it as a draft, and it never posted. I just found it... so here it is.)

(or is it MacGruber???)

Remember MacGyver? The guy who could save the day with a paperclip, a stick of gum, and a square of aluminum foil?

Apparently, the internet has its own MacGyver, and his name is Kipkay, and he'll teach you how to hack all sorts of interesting things:

Power your MP3 player with two potatoes
Reviving a dead car battery with a glass of wine
Make a cheap pair of noise cancelling headphones
Chill a beverage in two minutes (I actually saw this one on Mythbusters years ago)
Build a new battery for your laptop computer
Turn a one-time-use camcorder into a reusable video camera
