I need a pair of these ...

I just cannot reach that jar of peanut butter on the top shelf of my pantry. 

Seriously, though ... aren't these things cool?  I could change any light bulb I chose, paint my ceilings or get things out of my attic.  Or even be a performing clown in the local circus.

Yeah, maybe I won't invest in these.  I don't think I have any shoes to go with them.
