Paint a few white and place them outside on the grass so people won't park on your lawn.
Use it as building material. (This is actually what the Ancient Egyptians used to build the Great Pyramids.)
Keep one under your pillow for home defense.
Send one to the junk mail company with a note asking them to take you off their list.
It's colorful, use it as a Yule Log.
Carve the Presidents' faces in it and submit as a science or art project.
Give one to your boss and tell him it's a life preserver.
Use it as a base for flower arrangements.
Donate to the local airport for use as airliner wheel blocks.
Grind a few up and give it back to your in-laws in a bag marked "lawn fertilizer."
For a community project, sink a few in the ocean and build an artificial reef.
Tie one to each foot when you walk through deep snow to keep your feet dry.

I'm like most people and don't care for fruit cake. But there was a company in Texas I think, that made them very moist with lots of Pecans. It was really the first fruit cake I liked. (except for my wife

) If you want to make a fruit cake better, put cloth over it and soak the cloth in brandy or Amaretto, and keep soaking it until it moistens up the cake. You can even get a meat injector and inject it into the center to help it soak in faster.

Instead of donating one to the local airport, just keep it in your trucks sidebox when your at that shipper that has busted wheel chock, you now have one for yourself.
