Wine bottle balancer and Natasha Bedingfield

,
I was reminded by Laney of these gravity-defying wine bottle holders. If you are looking for a quick gift for Christmas, grab a chunk of lumber and make one. There are lots of examples of these around if you just do a quick search. Basically, just cut a 45 degree bevel on the end and a hole near the top. VoilĂ ! Heres the one Laney made:
It would be a fun gift to send to someone without any explanation and see if they could figure it out. A long time ago someone sent our family a similar sized board with a number of holes bored in it. We puzzled over it for quite a while until we learned that it was a spaghetti measurer. Each hole is a different diameter. You fit a bundle of uncooked spaghetti into a hole of your choosing  to determine how many it will feed. So I thought it might be a fun gift to combine the spaghetti measurer and the wine balancer. Just an idea.
On an unrelated note, we went to a San Francisco tree lighting ceremony last night and saw Natasha Bedingfield perform. She was really awesome. We were about five feet from the stage and I shot video of her set with the intention of posting some of it here. Unfortunately, with my cheapie camera and the volume of the music, the sound is just a crackling noise. Anyone know of a program that will allow me to possibly clean up audio?
On the plus side, I was close enough to get some great snapshots. Heres Natasha in SF last night. Im certain she was staring right into my camera on the first one. And thats a pocketful of sunshine.
Our tree is bigger than the one in NYC. Booyah!
