Leo's final 'piece of crap'! (Chad take over hosting duties starting next week.)

On this show Leo introduced us to SAND from Brookstone. Here’s what Brookstone says about it. SAND is the packable, stretchable and just incredible stuff you’ll simply never put down. Unlike beach or play sand, SAND has special properties that make it soft and stretchy. Build something big, something small, let it flow through your fingers. You’ll be fascinated as it oozes, moves, and melts right before your eyes—just like a slow-moving liquid. Great for children and adults, at home or in the office, it won’t make a mess and never dries out. SAND is kinetic—that means it's designed to stick to itself but not to you. It flows through your fingers just like wet sand, but leaves them completely dry and mess-free. And no matter how you pull, stretch and separate SAND (even if some gets on the floor), it always recombines easily. No vacuum cleaners or mops needed. But here’s the best part: when you’re ready to break out the SAND again, it’s just the same as it was when it came out of the jar. And Leo’s take: It seems Leo (and most of us) were sort of under-whelmed by SAND. As opposed to the company saying you’ll never put it down, Leo was done playing with it quite quickly. Maybe we didn’t understand the wonders it can do, but from what we saw, it didn’t do much. About $12 to $30 depending on size and shipping costs. It’s also available on Amazon. Brookstone website:
