<p>Are you the type of person who likes to march around barefoot, but hate getting your feet dirty.</p>
<p>Well, even if you&#8217;re too lazy to put some slippers on or clean your floors, these new little <strong>disposable soles</strong> are just for you.</p>
<p>These <strong>Disposable Shoes by Jun-Soo Choi</strong> are made with premade stickies and come in a ready to step on container. So all you do is step on one and away you go. These things are not only good for hygiene, but they also protect your feet from whatever danger might be on your kitchen floor.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s another idea. If you&#8217;re worried about keeping your feet clean, how about taping some <strong>Swiffers</strong> to your feet and popping on a little <a href="http://www.smarter.com/footloose-flashdance-2-disc-set-widescreen-dvd/sa--pi-577323245--qq-Footloose%2Bthe%2Bmovie.html" target="_blank"><strong><em>Footloose</em></strong></a> by <strong>Kenny Loggins</strong> and make like Kevin Bacon and scrub them floors!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m just throwing that out there.</p>

<p>And you know that parents aren&#8217;t the only ones looking to buy this stuff.</p>
<p>You know there is a guy out there who wants to know what his girlfriend is giggling about every time she reads a text message on her phone and she says, &#8220;oh, it&#8217;s just from my friend Chris.&#8221;</p>
<p>Chris is not a girl dude, I hate to break it to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Microsoft released some newer models of the <a href="http://www.smarter.com/stats/scripts/redir.php?bt=0&amp;ch=10&amp;oi=54556835&amp;mc=8&amp;dp=1&amp;bp=1&amp;pr=0&amp;rr=0&amp;sb=&amp;ca=8&amp;outclick=smartergadgetsblog" target="_blank">Xbox 360</a> with the heatsink feature that<img src="http://images.smarter.com/blogs/heatsinkcheck.jpg" alt="Xbox 360 Heat Sink" align="right" height="266" width="220" /> allows it to survive longer and not burn up as quickly.</p>
<p>Well to see if you&#8217;re screwed or not, here&#8217;s a little tip I got from <a href="http://kotaku.com/gaming/highly-scientific/is-your-360-a-winner-check-285576.php" target="_blank">Kotaku</a> to see if you got the heatsink or not.</p>
<p>So first, grab your digital camera and put it on top of an overturned Xbox 360 like in the photo.</p>
<p>Then snap a picture, if you see your DVD drive like you do in step three of the picture to the right, sorry pal, it looks like you got jacked. But if you can&#8217;t see it, then it looks like you got lucky and your chances of having a longer lasting 360 are good.</p>
