mmm... AOL CDs...
I've found that those make great frisbees if you get the hang of throwing them. They make a nice *tink* when they hit hard cement...

Random AOL CD fun: stick it in a microwave! I remember seeing a physics experiment on this once. Stick a CD in a microwave for 8 seconds and sparks jump between the tracks, making for a really REALLY cool lightning effect.

*NOTE*Turn off smoke alarms before you try this. I take no responsibility for your actions. This text was never really here. ChiefDelphi takes no responsibility for your actions.*/NOTE*

Also, they make really great mouse-trap-driven-car wheels. You just have to figure out how to match the hub to whatever shaft you have. Coat the edges in duct tape and you have great traction.

Oh, and finally about the prom thing... I think I'd make my prom outfit with an exoskeleton of aluminum, pneumatics, and motors. The only song I'd be able to dance to would be "Mr. Roboto", BUT I'D BE A DARN GOOD ROBOT DANCER!
