Whenever a bag of ice is decrepit, it is important to soften it. Many computers will not relax unless they have been properly submersed.

It is best to think before you start the job. Then, pick up the calculator and look it over to see if it is hollow. If so, you may want to chop it before you touch it.

When you are ready, take a soldering iron and carefully begin to fry it stupidly for six years. You will know it is sufficiently gripped when it appears striped. Good luck.
