A file folder labeled "Ultimate Technique." It contains several satellite photos of a group of oriental teens reading an ancient scroll written in an extremely obscure Chinese dialect. If translated, the text proves to be a recipe for pickled vegetables. Any pickles made with this recipe will be quite delicious.

A terrarium containing a large black snake which appears to be reading a crumbling page of Hebrew script and hissing irritably.
This thread gives me an idea for a similar "warehouse" thread, but one that WE would build. I'll think about it.

A Shetland pony, calmly munching on some hay. A note on the side reads "Major Telekinetic Danger! Feed regularly. Do not anger! Do not attempt to remove from preferred habitat."

Hey! I got shorted by 5 boxes! What gives! 
Great fun, that site from Steve Jackson Games. Nice guy, too, even if he accidentally made the New Orleans Worldcon even more of a Chinese fire-drill back in 1988.*
-=-=-=-
* he was also editor for the daily newsletter. The actual schedule ended up being all messed up, but Steve didn't help matters when he accidentally printed the wrong day's schedule as a 'correction' in the daily 'zine

A headband with an eye-in-the-pyramid insignia. Wearing it with the insignia over the pineal gland grants the wearer psionic abilities: ESP at Power 10, Electrokinesis at Power 5, and all others at Power 1, with all skills at IQ. If it is removed, the former wearer will believe that all of his/her psi use was a vivid daydream but will be reluctant to let anyone else wear it.

A modern office telephone, with a built-in clock. It functions normally, but if the clock is set to some time other than the present, the telephone will make calls through time to that date and time. Calls made to numbers that were not in service at that time will get the usual friendly recording ("We're sorry . . .")

A small brooch-like pin, less than a half-inch across, depicting a red and gold pyramid with a white eye at the peak. Whoever wears the pin will slowly become aware of people constantly watching them. Removing the pin seems to stop the surveillance.

since the Gummi Bears weren't as interesting as some of the neat things you all have found, I decided to open another box to find...
A large plastic bag, with the body of a chimpanzee inside. If the bag is opened, the smell of formaldehyde escapes. The chimp's ankles appear to be secured in roughly sawed stocks made from particle board, with formica on one side. The chimp's lower legs and feet have been dissected. Careful examination reveals that the chimp's ankles have somehow fused (at a molecular level) with the particle board and formica.

eeeww, gross.

quickly stuffing the dead chimp back into it's box, I opened another to find something a bit more interesting...
A plastic folder which is labeled "Missing Notebook of Leonardo da Vinci, pages 2-3, 10, and 56." Inside are 4 old, brittle pages in plastic protectors. All are in mirror writing. Page 2 appears to be a description of radar. Page 3 has diagrams of jet engines. Page 10 has a drawing which looks rather like a Stealth fighter. Page 56 has a rather complicated diagram and a sketch which looks as if it is supposed to be a spaceship. There are some equations on the page which seem to give the speed of the vessel. If converted to modern distance measurements one will find that it travels at a little over 2,000,000 miles/second.

A plain wooden cup, very ancient looking. Carbon dating will place it at around 2,000 years old.

A helmet, the inside of which is covered with small electromagnetic sensors. There is a compartment for two standard C cells, and a cable terminating in a standard serial connector. When plugged into a computer, worn, and switched on, it will generate source code for a program which (according to the copious comments) will act and talk exactly like the person who put it on, down to quirks, favorite quotes, likes, dislikes, and other eccentricities. Unfortunately, the code will take up at least 1.5Gb of disk space, and it is all written in LOGO.

A paper shopping bag containing a 5,000-piece jigsaw puzzle. When assembled, the puzzle turns out to be a photograph of the group opening the crate that contained the puzzle.

A 7" long blue-green crystal that feels quite cool to the touch. In complete darkness it glows very lightly and seems to hum. If placed on the ground it sprouts roots and grows into a large crystalline bush which in a matter of minutes bursts into flames. If a intelligent creature is within a few meters of the bush, it will hear a powerful psionic voice saying "Put off thy shoes from thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground." If the hearer obeys, he gets a very spiffy staff; if not, the bush burns out and vanishes in a puff of noxious blue vapor.
You also find a typo: "a intelligent creature". Guess I can consider myself an intelligent creature... Made me chuckle.

A battered black leather wallet. At Greenwich midnight it will "refill" with $50.00 in U.S. currency, to a maximum of $500.00 at one time. The bills are random and used. Note that it does not create money. It reintegrates incinerated/shredded money; the serial numbers might be filed as destroyed somewhere...

Fifty watermelons. If one is sliced open, 2d human eyeballs will be found growing inside. The watermelons taste kind of like chicken.
But I wasn't really happy with the Watermelons, so I decided to explore another box and found ...
A black velvet portrait of a young Elvis Presley. Tears will spontaneously appear if any Elvis song is sung while facing the picture. Recordings and any other reproductions do not cause this effect. The scent of fresh fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches will also cause tears. The inscription on the bottom of the frame reads "Elvis Aron Presley, 44th US President 2000-2008." Any true devotee of Elvis will be permanently cured of a single affliction upon touching the tears. This works only once per believer per lifetime.

A case of a strange clear drink with small colored dots floating in the liquid. Included is a carbon copy of a plan for alien embryo breeding and distribution through a major soft-drink company. The original copy is missing.
Brings new meaning to "don't drink the water"...
