Re: What's a nifty gadget to own?
A tea bag is a very simple yet useful concept, but I'm not sure if it would be considered a gadget.
The definition for gadget is:
"a small mechanical device or tool, especially an ingenious or novel one."
Hmm. While a tea bag is not a mechanical device, couldn't it be considered a tool (used to brew tea while keeping the tea leaves separate from the brewed tea?

Yeah, that is the one big drawback; whether they are on cars or portable radios, they do break easily if you're not careful.
Tea infusers would work!

Good one Breezey - it would be very difficult to get any use out of cans or bottles if we couldn't open them!

And nails would be pretty useless without a hammer. Makes you wonder which was invented first.

Bit like the chicken and the egg Tater... Except my son believes the egg came first for breakfast and then the chicken for dinner.

Re: What's a nifty gadget to own?
Hmmm... we have weed eaters...basically to cut weeds where lawn mowers can't reach...close to house, other buildings, trees, etc...
And maybe edgers or trimmers?

A whipper snipper is a glorified trimmer I guess.

We call them weed whackers, or weed eaters. But now I just might have to start calling them whipper snippers.

Response seems to be a lot of laughter. lol...with repeated attempts at saying the new phrase without laughing.
