Supposedly it gets rid of pain. They show people with thermal photography and you can see where pain is and it goes away when you wear the bracelet. I want one just so I can see if it works. I have constant back pain because I have small healing fractures in the spine. I don't wear jewelry either other than my wedding ring. I don't even wear a watch. But if this thing could really get rid of pain I'd wear it. If not, I'd return it for my money back guarantee. All you really lose is the S&H.

I've got some sugar pills that work just as well that I will sell you for half the price.

That's not true. It makes you feel pretty. ;)

Happy Monkey 01-11-2005 07:22 AM

No, you do that yourself. ;)

But wait! There's <i>more</i>!!

The PASTA POT. Amazing strainer built <i>into the lid of the pot</i>!

Holyjeez did I laugh . . . The obnoxious family banging their silverware on the table as the frantic wife promptly dumps the spaghetti into the sink. . .

This is the point where the wife should have picked up the pasta by the handful and -----matter-of-factly and with a very pleasant smile on her face --- served it into each family-member's lap.

And then smacked her hubby.

Yeah.

I'm pretty sure that woman needed more than a Pasta Pot to ease her woes.

I never actually saw the commercial, but I got one from my sister for Christmas last year. (Don't tell anybody, but I'm not sure we used it. Yet.)

I have not examined the pasta pot extensively, but the design seems guaranteed to make scalding oneself with boiling water much much easier than with conventional cooking methods ...

I got a Pasta Pot as a gift but haven't tried it yet. :confused:

Oh my brother has a pasta pro cooker and uses that shit alllllll the time. It's ... okay, I guess. He's weird like that. He really gets into these weird gadgets and trinkets - his apartment is littered with them.

Sure ain't a strand of spaghetti in the sink when he's cooking, though. :)

Is your dessert so boring it leaves your family snoring?

I love it when those people fall asleep at the table because the have a boring cake on the table... only the Great American chocolate factory will make it exciting..... I love that ad!

I always wish i had a pasta pot when I make spaghetti.

Take the lid of your current pasta pot and drill small holes in it. PRESTO! Instant new lid!

I've watched the magic bullet infomercial 4 times. I just can't stop watching once I start. These people making these commercials try 100 times harder to keep your attention than any other show you will ever watch. It's non stop talking, pictures...And I just love to watch their expressions for signs of being fake, bored, lying, etc. The girl in the magic bullet infomercials is all giggly and smiley even at times when it's not really appropriate or realistic, she is obviously faking her way through the whole thing and I picture that in her head, she's like "I hate this idiot, who cares about this cheap piece of crap rip-off...are we done yet...smile, smile, gotta smile, gotta act happy" At least that's how I feel when I'm waiting on tables, so I can kind of relate to acting all happy when you really couldn't care less...

I spent two hours in there and almost bought the place out. I think I got some kitchen gadgets in the end.
