I have:

Some 'Super De-icer'. It's not really that super though, it refroze onto my windscreen last time I used it.

A poi handle

A gas lamp

A selection of pen-knives

I'm not realy allowed to talk about that yet.... MAYBE some day, but not right now.

My job title is "Research Specialist I" and I work for the military as a civilian subcontractor. That is about all that I am allowed to say.

Don't worry, the coffee cup is empty, I just forgot to bring it home last month. I noticed it sitting behind my monitor when I was listing the contents of my desktop... actually, wait a second....

OH MY GOODNESS!!! there is something green and slimy crawling up out of the cup! Flee! Run for your lives! Your firearms are useless against it!
