For my car, the "Headlight of Osiris" - Confers 100% immunity to radar guns and speed cameras. Special Ability - can cast "Disintegrate Jerk" 4 times daily (cutting in, derisive gestures, driving slow in the fast lane etc are all legal grounds for its use).

T'lainya,
I'll take your remote control ( great idea !! )and add two new linked powers:
"Remote control of time compression/extension"
a) Compresses TV commercial breaks to 1/10 of a second. The "saved time" is used for the next function.
or,
b) Extends TV commercial breaks to exactly one second longer than time necessary to answer the call of nature, wash, refill the popcorn and munchie bowl, get another drink, and return to the couch.

Heh, good one Waverly. How about a simulacrum to do your work. Since it does 60% of 100% and I only work at about 10% it'd do more work than me anyway.
"Hey lets fire Gruntboy and hire his simulacrum - it does more work and doesn't need a constant supply of coffee and donuts to keep him awake." While they're at it, they can get the simulacrum to search for waverly
