Join in the discussion about the 7 most stupidly overpowered weapons are, how Nathan Fillion fans are helping him buy Firefly, what Dr. Pepper looks like in Japan and how your phone can get you out of a speeding ticket!
Hunting: It is an age-old dance. It is a sacred covenant between the predator and the prey ... and the guy bristling with a half-dozen giant cannons and sporting only the most advanced cloaking technology. Sure, it's not "fair" to the animal, and sure there's no "sport" in it, and sure it makes you "kind of a dick," but answer us this: If deer like living so much, why didn't they invent high explosives, huh? If that logic made sense, well then, buddy, have we got some stupidly overpowered hunting gadgets for you.
Being a TSA agent is rough. You spend all day groping angry people's boobs and balls only to get vilified by politicians and in the press on almost every occasion. But at least working at the airport means one is surrounded by a host of restaurants, cafes, and bars where an agent can walk in and get a decent meal and a stiff drink. Wait . . . What's that, blogosphere? There's a Sea-Tac area cafe that's now openly refusing to serve TSA agents? OK, never mind. Being a TSA agent just sucks all around.
Sahas Katta, a writer for SkatterTech, got clocked by a cop doing over 40 in a 25 mph zone. He handed over his info and signed the ticket, but then remembered he was running Google MyTracks on his Motorola Droid. For the uninitiated, MyTracks uses the phone's GPS to record and plot where the user has travelled, allowing you to log a jog, bike ride or drive. After looking at the data and doing some research, Katta discovered that he never crested the 25 mph speed limit and decided to fight the ticket.
Perusing the Daily What this morning, we came across the photo from Reddit user adam1988, who posted the above photo with the title "Just a Dr. Pepper can from Okinawa." So, in case you're keeping track of Texas-based Dr Pepper updates today: Can art for the soda in Japan looks like this, and the new DP diet drink Dr Pepper 10 is "not for women."
Firefly fans have launched a Web site and Facebook page trying to rally support to help Nathan Fillion buy the rights to the canceled Fox series. Earlier this week, Fillion told EW he'd be willing to reprise his Firefly role as Captain Mal again. Then he added: "If I got $300 million from the California Lottery, the first thing I would do is buy the rights to Firefly, make it on my own, and distribute it on the Internet."
