What's the best way to clean up a CD?
I have some decently (as in two cats playing Tic-Tac-Toe) scratched up games over here which I want to play, how does one clean em up?

Toothpaste & a paper towel or soft cloth, I'm not kidding, it really does work (don't look at me like that...I'm not crazy!). Spread a bit of toothpaste on the CD with your finger and polish it with the paper towel until the scratches go away. Don't forget to wash off the CD's with water before using them. The toothpaste polishing will leave tons of fine swirl marks on the CD but those are usually too small to mess up the CDROM unless yours is really picky. It worked for my CD's after I bumped them off my desk and stepped on them after coming home late from a party.

I'm not sure why people choose 'To Love is to Bury' as their wedding song...It's about a murder-suicide

The reason it works is because toothpaste contains very fine abrasives which help clean all the crap off your teeth. Which is why those weirdos who brush their teeth 5 times a day sometimes end up brushing all the enamel right off their teeth which ain't good.

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.
