Fix a broken laptop hinge or lid
Topic: Personal

Sometime late last night, my laptop had a date with destiny, or rather my cat.

The meeting was not kind.  My laptop, which has survived being stepped on in France, thrown down a trash shute in India and dropped in Japan, was no match for a 10 pound shelter cat.  And so my laptop, which was once so awesome was in two halves...she somehow managed to break the hinges of the screen. The lid was not able to stand up on its own and flopped back and forth. 

So I thought...

I dug through the junk drawer (you must have one too) and pulled out ducttape, super glue, velcro and super putty.  Each caused disaster.  Going back through the drawer I found this thing and a heavenly host sang in approval:
