We violate more safety rules before 9AM...

Caught wind of a new TV show called Combat Pawn. It focuses on the store Guns Plus near Ft. Bragg and follows the basic format of other  TV show that came before it.

This is the opening of the pilot episode:

I know their is not a lot of reality in "Reality TV" so maybe someone from TV land talked them into this display, but even so, I can't wrap my mind around putting you name out their as the guy pointing a gun at the next door neighbor every morning. More here (link removed.) Comments there say they really clear the lot every day.  If you don't get the title watch this link and get off my lawn.

Do you know where your towel is?



THE BLACK SUNDAY SOCIETY

STEP ONE:      Obtain a medium size towel (for example a dish towel from O'Charley's).

STEP TWO:     Run cold water over the towel to soak it (you may wring it out if you like).

STEP THREE: Place the wet towel in a freezer ( for example the walk-in at O'Chaley's).

STEP FOUR:   Remove the towel when frozen (5-10 minutes) Run a small amount of cool water over the towel to make it pliable.

STEP FIVE:     Place the semi-frozen towel on the back of your neck (Yes your shirt is going to be wet).
