Our email this week is via Doug Ferguson from New Jersey who is celebrating his 10th anniversary of sending in warehouse videos! f you have older Bose Quiet Comfort headphones and want to add Bluetooth capability to them in very neat and convenient way, you’ll really want to see Doug’s video! The clever solution to Doug’s Bluetooth addition is in that freeze frame from his video.
Here’s Doug’s email:
I believe I was your first user submitted gadget warehouse video back in 2013.
Here’s my latest gadget warehouse video. https://youtu.be/sK-RRsHNzrE
Thanks, Doug Ferguson
From The Giz Wiz: I did an Amazon web search & found the unit Doug talked about in his video. It was still under $30 as of 3/10/23,

How To Submit Your Video For The Gadget Warehouse & Win An Autographed Copy of MAD Magazine.
We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show! Here’s what we’re looking for! Your home shot video – 2 to 3 minutes long, in any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap: Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won’t get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, “family friendly” language applies.
–
I invented this! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can’t market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it’s a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions. No professional ads please.
–
My Gadget Warehouse: Okay, so you don’t have a warehouse. It doesn’t matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you’re still hanging on to it.
–
My Favorite Gadget (favorite old, or favorite new): Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be a new gadget you just bought too.
–
Post them on YouTube and send us the link! We’ll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that’s unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long! Low production value is fine, but we should be able to hear you and see you! If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you’ll earn a tiny amount of fame (hopefully). And if you live in the US, you’ll also get an autographed 38+ year old Alfred E. Neuman picture and a MAD surprise (most likely the current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of US, I can autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res copy if we show your video. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it’s a copy. We’ve tested it out and fans say they look terrific! If you submitting warehouse videos for a second, third time, etc., you’ll get the current issue of MAD as a thank you.
All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv

Email of the week:
Hey Dicky D!
Pfaltzgraff (pronounced Faults GRAF) is a very old, established and well known company (est 1811) that makes fine dinnerware. I’m surprised no one in the chat room spoke up and let you know.
So that’s what I’m doing! Lydia
Then Richard Vega emailed us:
Thank you for leading us to Pfaltzgraff.
It’s not a made up name. It is an old (1811) American stoneware company.
We were given a full set, plates, bowls, cups and saucers as a wedding gift in 1983.
Over the years, and children, we only have one plate left. It was so fun ordering 4 more plate and bowls of the same pattern from them! What a great 40th Anniversary gift you gave us.
