Oh! Duh.
So I'm getting ready to have a few people over for a barbecue tomorrow, and with all the food I bought, my fridge is full, and I have no convenient way to cool off soda and beer and such. I didn't really want to go buy a cooler (I just bought a grill, and am trying to limit my profligate spending here), so I was racking my brains trying to think of something I could effectively press into service as a cooler.
And then I thought, oh right, I have the perfect thing that would serve as a cooler: my other refrigerator. Der.
"When network administrators fail, we suffer the inconvenience of the email being down. When farming fails on a large scale---a disaster that has periodically visited humanity since agriculture's emergence 10,000 years ago---people starve. That's why farming is fundamentally different, and why it is still deserving of some form of public support." --Tom Philpott
