how about instead of clay pigeons use the cd's
PULL!! *oozi time* he he :D
I actually keep my CDs in an extra drawer, hoping one day, Radio Shack will come out with a CD-OverWriter so I can have all this extra space on these CDs ;).
Hopefully someday it may happen..but not today :(.
Hehe, I hope so! Isn't the information on commercial CDs physically imprinted on there?
I use to do that with floppies I use to get. now since they went to cd's I can't do that. I wouldn't hope to much on overwriting a cd, since they don't come in CD-RW's. once the cd is burnt it is pretty much done. it will be very hard to refill those pits to over write it.
Parksie has his own unique use for the hole in the centre of AOL CDs... :D
Oi *grrr* I don't...the hole's far too small :p
You could throw AOL CD's at "them" or double glazing salespeople
I keep them on a shelf in my room... along with Netscape Online, Freeserve, CompuServe (whatever happened to them...?), TinyOnline and every one I can find, for the same reason as Matthew.
I have another use for them: ever tried to play with them? They always fly in weird angles :p
I use them as ear-rings. Very fetching.
td.
When you say you play with them, what exactly do you mean? ;)Quote:

Chew-toys for my pets.

Pix, don't start getting ideas because when I said "play" I meant... pick them up and throw them trough the air (sorry for my bad english :rolleyes: ) - therefore "playing" with them (like "playing" a game).
Sorry but in Portugal we have like 10 words that mean "play" (d*mn, we have like 10 words for each one you have! :p ), but all with slightly different meanings so I don't have much choice :D
I use them for coasters and for scraping the ice of my car's windscreen in Winter
They are after me. *they* are hiding everywhere.
Nobody is safe.
CDROMs are the pretend shuriken of the 21st Century... ;)
A few years back, when visiting a Barnes and Noble's located in a huge shopping center in St. Louis with a friend, we saw a stand in the vestibule with like 300 AOL CDs. We took like 50 and had a blast frisbying them across the parking lot. Man, those things fly :D
Neat:cool: this is like eskimos having 200 words for snow (or the British having about the same number for rain) is it? (i.e. more words for things that are more important toi you :) )Quote:

I once heard that when the Bible was first translated into a native Eskimo language there's a line which saysQuote:

"There will be much joy..."
The Eskimos didn't have a word for "joy" (presumably because life's so bleak!) so it was translated to:
"There will be much tail-wagging..."
:)
You can use them for decoration. I've seen a pretty mobile made out of AOL CDs. You glue two label to label, and then put beads or paint little patterns on the data side.
You could also put them label down on a tabel top or a wall as a decoration, kind of tile something with them.
I use them for coasters and stress relief.
Use them for tiling the shower...
So presumably Eskimos though "this 'God' stuff is just for the dogs";)Quote:

She would if she were into Gibsonesque cyberpunk: heavy chrome, neon, CRT green/amber, and lots of wires.
By the way, the company I work for is Ciber, not Cyber, hence my handle. I don't know why they mispelled cyber. To be cute, I guess.
In which case the AOL CDs would probably make good breast-shieldsQuote:

Well another use for them would be to hang them on the ceiling like my cousin does! :p
