I LOVE the circular saw... and truthfully, the flamethrower is BRILLIANT.

I've got room in my back yard!

I was just reading about this the other day in PM actually. That was the maiden voyage, one of them is the PM Editor. And then the fire department showed up.

Apparently, it is a ramjet that is shaped like a tuning fork. Once it is primed with a leafblower (as shown) the explosions are pretty much self-sustained as you add fuel. That's the pulsing sound that you hear.

Really cool Amazon link!

It takes into account exchange rates and then tells you which Amazon to buy it from.

(Side peeve: I am reading book 2 of the series linked above. Book 3 is "forthcoming" according to Wikipedia - but it's already in paperback in the UK!)

It's a chick flick!

Perfect summary.

Selling out can be so much FUN!

Snuffy, I had no idea!

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Snuffleupagus:

In an interview on a Canadian telethon that was hosted by Bob McGrath, Snuffy's performer, Martin P. Robinson, revealed that Snuffy was finally introduced to the main human cast mainly due to a string of high profile and sometimes graphic stories of pedophilia and sexual abuse of children that had been aired on shows such as 60 Minutes and 20/20. The writers felt that by having the adults refuse to believe Big Bird despite the fact that he was telling the truth, they were scaring children into thinking that their parents would not believe them if they had been sexually abused and that they would just be better off remaining silent.

Battle of the Bands

This is a pretty slick video... I think I counted 5-7 ones that I own[ed].

Tax Freedom Day (for MD)

Every penny I've earned up to now has not been mine...

http://www.taxfoundation.org/taxfreedomday/

This doesn't even include any deficit spending... add about another month for that.

You can check the chart for your state... it's already past, unless you are CT (1), NJ (2), NY (3).

Actually, that's a good chunk of my friends still!

Is this guy drunk? Retarded? Both???

From the fine state that gave us McKinney (remember her?)... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9R-cQ_A_6w

I am FAIRLY sure since he is (D) he is also one of those fine folks who apparently is smarter than me and decided what I wanted to do with my money more than I do.
