One way to unclog your drain using a two liter bottle is to fill it with warm water and squeeze the bottle while pointing it down the drain. The pressure will swoosh light debris away. When that doesn't work, get out the scissors and head on over to the Dollar Store Crafts blog for instructions on how to make your own drain snake our of a two liter bottle. Just get ready for a disgusting surprise and the smell of death.

If you see the end result of this wikihow article, we're pretty sure you say "Oh man, I could never do that!" Wrong.  You can do this, and it is actually relatively easy to execute. Paper, scissors, thread, a stapler, and tape - that's about all you need to perform this awesome crazy 3D paper snowflake.

I have a hopeless addiction to the show Survivorman. As a nature dork, I love the idea of surviving off the fatta th' land, as they say. Les (the dude who is Survivorman) has taught me some indispensible lessons - in the event I get stranded in a remote location with only a broken motorbike, a really heavy pack, and two acorns. Amazingly enough, this instructable is in the spirit of Survivorman (and Boyscouts). Enjoy!
