Can't think of what to send the troops for Christmas?
Send them Silly String (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061206/ap_on_re_us/silly_string_to_iraq)!

Tampons to plug up bullet wounds. Interesting....

I had a friend who went to school for sports medicine. He said that they used tampons to stop nosebleeds, too.
I never would have thought of using silly string to detect trip wires. Thanks for passing this on, Viki!

What, tampons are good for eating? Perhaps if you're a vampire and would like a cup of tea...

and technically you couldn't make tea with a tampon, it would just absorb all the water in the cup.

Morea mentioned them in her post, you silly silly string eater....

And yes, it probably would, especially those super-absorbancy ones.

Do you find yourself needing to detect trip wires often? :o
