Oh...I just had a thought come to mind. I just realized who the "world's most mysterious man" (Dos Equis beer commercial pitch man) reminds me of...the men's designer warehouse ("You're gonna like the way you look, I guarantee it") guy. :laugh:

Very cool, Leonard. Can they be used for home defense? Seriously.
Ha ha....probably Tim. I would not want to get shot with it.

Speaking of projectile weapons... Not sure of how something like this would be useful, but still pretty cool. Want. :cool:

*NERD ALERT NERD ALERT*

Yesterday night I had to re-engage my SCRABBLE skillz against some new friends who mentioned scrabble before I did.
Some notable words that got the win for me:

HOAX (TWS)
LIFER (TWS) 52 pts
... and my favorite from last night...
FEEB (TWS) 42 pts

I didn't get any Ss or Blanks or the Q, but those Triple Word Scores really put me ahead.

4 person game and I got 215 points. Not bad.

I'm pretty rusty on my two and three letter words, gotta start studying again. :banana:

Agreed. I sure as hell don't want to get shot with it. With that said, all my home defense solutions are gunpowder powered.

Don't drink and Ebay because you might accidently buy something like this.

Maybe there will be a '80s themed party or something. :facepalm:

Today I was at the stoplight where I saw a bank robber get nabbed a few years back. It was surreal to say the least.
Rather mundane day when I looked up and saw this dude wearing a long overcoat and looking like Prince run out of the bank. He darted back and forth and then turned and ran straight into the arms of a uniformed officer who came running down the walkway. A few shots rang out as they struggled and I remember not feeling threatened because I could see all hands were pointed downward. That cop had spun "Prince" around and had him standing and cuffed before my stoplight had changed. I looked around and no one had really noticed. Traffic just moved.

It wasn't cold enough to wear the vest but I know it would have been a big hit.

There are some cool dentists. Mine is. His DD is an E39 Dinan M5. It used to be a E36 M3, but now that's the track car, currently with a blown HG I might add. Project car is trying to put a 57 Bug body on a Boxter. Last visit his assistant had to chide him to work as we were BS'ing about cars. :laugh:

But he's still a dentist and I'm still miserable in the chair. :(
