What to do w/your AOL discs

Ever wondered what to do with those AOL discs that come in the mail or in your magazine? Well, I use mine for coasters. They work great and fit right in place on the computer desk. It's just a thought for you since a lot of people wind up throwing them away. I know someone who has saved all of his since AOL started and he has a nice collection, hehe.

I know someone who covered his entire car with AOL discs and other unwanted CD's... glued 'em on shiny side out. :laugh:

There was a document circulating on the internet about 6-7 years ago as to what to do with all of the AOL disks you got in the mail. My all-time favorite was:

"Attach a ruler to the disk and presto! A new fly-swatter"

As far as your friend goes, if he keeps it up, he might have a collector's item someday! :laugh:

I once read that rickshaw owners use them as reflectors.

Break them up into very sharp objects to cut said company's execs heads off.
