Our email this week with a very different kind of viewer video gadget comes from Adam Jakowenko. Here’s his email:
Hey guys, I couldn’t find if you had ever done this gadget but if you have, feel free to disregard this. If not, feel free to use it!
One thing I didn’t address in the video was how to get rid of a bug that’s still alive inside, and basically what I do is either release it outside while still alive (if I choose) or just put the Bugzooka in the garage with the bug still in the container and wait until the next day and the bug is always dead by then. Then I just empty the container into the trash.
I mostly use it for spiders and other random bugs. Doesn’t work great for flies cuz they’re too fast. But other slower flying insects I have caught, along with most anything that can’t fly.

Thanks, Adam

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!
All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv

Letter of the week: Our email of the week is from a long time fan of the show Steve Miller. Steve Writes:
From: Steve Miller
Subject: New Woot for the GizWiz
I’m watching the episode that discussed how cool www.woot.com used to be before Amazon bought them. Well, the people who originally started woot.com have a new site called www.meh.com. It’s been up for about a year and I have found some good stuff on it.
