When I was a teenager, we went on a cross-country trip with a bunch of other kids my age. We were in Lake Tahoe, CA at our campground, which was situated under some gigantic pine trees. A big gob of pine sap dripped off one of the trees, and landed right on the top of my head. We tried everything you can think of to get it out. My sister was just about to just cut the sap out (along with my hair), when someone made a suggestion that we hadn't yet tried.

Peanut butter.

We had our doubts, but gave it a shot. Sure enough, the sap came out of my hair. Of course I had to shampoo two more times to get the oil out, but it sure beat cutting all that hair out.
