In my effort to spread useless knowledge and party trivia to geeks everywhere (do geeks really need party trivia?), I thought that I'd dole out a little info about that lovable chemical we have all taken for granted at one time or another (no, not alcohol): WD-40. WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, 40th attempt and was invented by the chemist Norm Larsen in 1953. I'm sure you're itching to know more about this magical potion, so you will definitely want to venture to their site.

What kind of stuff do you guys use WD-40 for? I myself love the tangy taste of WD-40 on my French Toast in the morning. (Please note that The Linux Pimp cannot be held responsible for said ingestion of said WD-40 on said French Toast or any other item of questionable or unquestionable nutritional content. Inhilation and intravenous injections should probably be considered no-no's too.) All this talk of ingesting WD-40 reminds me of this link.
