Is my DVD-RW ruined?

I'm as thrifty as the next guy. But I'd make a drink coaster out of that

Actually, discs can make lethal ninja stars. One day I got bored and used some tin snips to cut it into a star. I used tin snips because they were sitting right there. However, I think there are better tools that would cut the disc cleaner. The edges were sharp and strong, though!

When it comes to CD ROM disks, why both reusing it if you have any doubts.

Blank CD Rom disks cost about $0.20?

I say fling this disk accurately at the nearest trash can and get another disk.

Data is worth much more than the cost of the disk these days.

If I get a broken disk....
1 see if I can salvage it
2 if not I do one of two (or both)things.
3 I use it as a decorative coaster.
4 I throw it at a wall untill it busts.

I'm replacing some doors! I could do that! Wife decided all doors in the house need to be replaced so they are gone anyway! She wants 2 panel doors now. I just agree (This is wisdom in marriage) - and in the end, now i have a target! For a little while of course.
