How to eat my syrup.

I just bought some Lyle's Golden Syrup, and realized that I have no idea what to do with it. This being my first ever can of the stuff, I'm looking for easy and tasty things to do with it.

Help me become an amateur cobbler.

I'd like to learn how to make my own leather wingtips, but I have not the slightest idea of how to start. What do I need? how do I learn? how much does it cost to make a shoe?

YOUNG HEARTS BE FREE TONIGHT

haloweenfilter: I think that I am going to be Rod Stewart from the "Young Turks" video, and seeing as how the version of the music video on youtube is such poor quality, I thought that I would check here to see if anyone could help me figure out exactly what he was wearing.

How to unstick a stuck zippo

Zippofilter: I recently bought a 1976 Zippo knockoff at an antique store for $3. It has a wick and flint, but is completely out of oil. The problem is that the aluminum has oxidized and is so jammed in there that i can't remove it for refilling. Does anyone know a way to get it out?

I can't be the only one?

I like the new /random in the sidebar, but all I use it for is to try and find good flameouts on the grey. Could there be a /flame, so I can have something to do on a rainy day?

Sound on Mars?

Musicfilter: I was listening to Indie 103.1 (a Los Angeles radio station) and a song came on where it seemed that half of it was a strange narration of a Martian invasion. If any of you know what I'm talking about, I'd be grateful. The narrating was in a serious, NPR kind of voice... if that helps.

I remember it was in a deserty place too!

Help me remember the name of a show that I used to watch! It was a sort of futuristic (possibly post-apocalyptic) gladiator arena where the contestants fought in large (think gundam wing) sized battle suits that couldn't fly. I remember watching it in the 90's as a youngin. It was all 3d computer animation, around the same time (I think) as the transformers: beast wars series.
