Wordlock combination locks - easy to set, never forget.

Two things immediately sprang to mind when I saw this new invention: "Why didn't I think of that?" and "Where was this when I was in high school?"

From what I know, these Wordlocks are the first combination locks that allow you to set your combination using words rather than numbers. If you're like me, and can't remember a number sequence, these are for you. With a variety of products from padlocks (great for lockers, toolboxes, etc.), bike locks and TSA recognized luggage locks, you'll never need to remember a number combination again.

I bet you have an old lock at home right now which is totally useless because, darn it, you can't remember the combination. $9.99 at Amazon.

These are actually really cool. A little bit of background... I used to work with the guy who invented these... he won a Staples invention contest. I was notorious for forgetting my locker combo in HS, and I now use a wordlock at the gym.
