ALT WAYS TO OPEN A WINE BOTTLE WITHOUT A CORKSCREW

Okay, let's pretend like you're not an alcoholic, you've got a few friends over (Yes, there are people that drink with other people) and you can't find your cork screw. Oh no! We've all been in this predicament and the first inclination is to break the bottle and lap up every last drop that splatters on the floor. Wrong! Not one to waste any amount of wine, I've learned a few tricks that help get that cork out without totally ruining the buzz from the last bottle. And here they are:
1. A Screw, A Power Drill and a Wrench

By using the power drill to secure the screw, you can get it in there fairly straight. Once secured, use the wrench to tug on the screw. You'll need to use some strength, but this method is tried, tested and approved!

2. Viking Machete

You know that old viking machete you've had lying around? You can use that to lob off the top of a wine bottle. Make sure the bottle is secured before you do this! Works especially well for bottles that have been sealed with wax.
3. Scissors

If all else fails you can push the cork IN. Using a pair of open scissors use the pointy edge to secure in the cork and the dull side to push on. Make sure you point it away from yourself so you spray your friends and not yourself.
