Re: Mike Jensen's Bottle Opener

It's gone from his site, but you can still see it via the Way Back Machine here (scroll all the way to the bottom of the page):

Hi Mike,

I'd love to see a pic of Mike's beer bottle opener. Now you've got me
curious. I have some SA individuals around here that are about the
right size. I'm going to grab a six-pack and see if I can find an
opener.

I remember showing this meteorite (
http://www.meteorite-times.com/Back_Links/2006/March/s-a2b.jpg ) to a
friend at the Tucson Show and she said something like, "Oh, that would
make a nice hook. It could go on your wall and you could hang your
coat on it." I guess that would make it a toolbox meteorite as well
(;- )

I always search the bins in Tucson for one, but I think Mike Jensen holds the only one in existence. It also allows one to employ the ultimate geek pick-up line: "Excuse me, Miss, allow me to open that Coors Light with my meteorite for you."
