inMy dog found a hidden stash of squeaky toys at the park
Baxter hit the jackpot with that find. My cat hides her favorite toy mice under the fridge, and I only find them when I move it to clean. It's like a little graveyard for cat toys under there. What did you end up doing with the frogs?

inUnpopular opinion: I tried using a 4-inch grinder for trimming a tough hoof wall
Sounds like a great way to turn a hoof trim into a farrier science experiment. You're basically one slip away from giving that horse a hot pedicure. I'll stick to the slow and safe tools, thanks.

inWarning: I tried a shortcut for stretching carpet in a tight corner that actually worked
Oh man, the baseboard trick is a lifesaver. I once got a huge wardrobe unstuck by using a hammer handle and a paperback book as a shim. You start looking at everything in the room as a potential tool. Even used a belt looped around a door hinge once for pulling power. It's amazing what works when you're desperate.

inRant: A client in Austin insisted I just 'blow on the sensor' to fix his DSLR.
