My dog Baxter ate the whole wheel of cheese before I could get to it. I’m not mad though. It was kind of amazing. I’ll buy another one next paycheck.

But for the number of cracker boxes required to enjoy, this would have been a five-star review. Thank god for The Dollar Store!

Competition disaster (oval)

By
Russell Simpson
, January 10, 2013

I am still recovering from this weekend when I was the laughingstock of the entire Mariposa County Cheese Rolling ‘Rollapalooza.’ I purchased this cheese “WHEEL” as a last minute replacement for my trusty 75-lb Pecorino Wheel which got defaced by local youths. Still, I was looking forward to chasing a lighter “WHEEL” down the hill—this would give me more dynamic control over the direction of the roll. On the morning of the competition, imagine my distress when, dressed proudly in my regional colours and nearly-new cleats, I unwrapped the package to what turns out to be an OVAL-SHAPED cheese. This is NOT A WHEEL. Repeat: NOT A WHEEL. It is OVAL. Needless to say, you can imagine the rest (which was broadcast live on local TV AND one internet channel—note: the comments below the video are disgusting and defamatory). So why the two stars? As I bundled downhill behind the bouncing OVAL, arch-rivals roaring past in mirth, some chunks dislodged and the cheese itself was creamy and ripe. This is not a competition cheese. AVOID. If anyone wants it, I abandoned it in rage at the bottom of Greeley Hill, Mariposa County on Sunday afternoon (from the 49 North, take the 132 East). It should still be okay.

Use caution—this cheese is very sharp!

I was cut very badly while attempting to enjoy this cheese. I advise that you extreme caution due to the sharp nature. Keep a first aid kit on hand while using this product. It was very good quality, though.

These worked great in the cockpit for our transcontinental flights!

By
Linky’s Dad

My copilot and I both used these during our “daily grind” transcontinental flights from San Diego to Minneapolis. We had to modify them a bit to fit snug against the instrument panels (when we bought them we didn’t realize the planes we fly don’t have steering wheels!), but in the end it did the job. With our laptops firmly in place we were able to focus our attention on what really mattered, participating in raids with our WoW clan. During our last flight we were so immersed in trying to take down Eranikus that we overshot
Minneapolis by a full hour and a half before some annoying flight attendant interrupted us, babbling something about “FAA and F-16 fighters.” We’ll definitely use this product again at our next gig, whatever and whenever that happens to be…Highly recommended!

A request to the inventors!

By

I really like this thing, but I have one small request for consideration of the inventors…is it possible to have one made out of granite, maybe with a personalized inscription on the bottom as well as name and date of birth? I really like to get double use out of my purchases, and since this thing is going to kill me, I would like if it could double as my tombstone.

Follow-up: Actually, could you leave the name blank? It killed my wife and kids; I’m fine. Wow, this thing is useful. Once I wrestled it from the mangled wreckage I was easily able to walk the 13 yards and reattach it to my steering wheel, making contacting my family’s life insurance agent, and then writing this review, a breeze…thanks, Steering Wheel Desktop, you rock :D
