So it turns out that most Americans would rather have MacGyver around in an emergency than any other TV or movie hero. Question: Why do people in New Zealand care?

Just plain sad.

Crazy. I came across this story about a guy who spent days building a guillotine with which to end his own life. Lets just say, he was successful. I thought to myself, this has to be truly odd and unusual. Then I found even more stories of men doing this. The most amazing thing to me is that these people often spend days building these large, elaborate devices without arising suspicion from anyone. Sad.

Kevin Everett

This story is absolutely amazing. We hear so often about scientific research that will have an impact on medicine, but it is sometimes difficult to see how it will impact the lives of people. Everyone who has played football at any level knows that you walk on the field knowing full well that you may break your neck and never walk again, or may even die. Breakthroughs in medical and emergency response are making that much less likely. Fifteen or twenty years ago, Kevin Everett would have likely died from his injuries. Even five years ago, he would have likely been paralyzed for life. Thanks to the efforts of emergency responders and medical professionals, and to some new treatments, Everett moved his arms and legs today, and has a good chance of making a full recovery.
Many of the techniques used were developed by the Miami Project.

Cheater Cheater Bundchen Eater!

Ok, so you are a football team who cheats by using a video camera to steal defensive signals. Then, one game you get totally caught, but, amazingly, you get away with it... Most likely because the NFL doesn't want to tarnish the legacy of its most recent dynasty. Can you say "cover up"? An intelligent person would wipe his brow, take a deep breath, thank the Lord (or the devil with whom you made a deal) you got away with it, and never risk doing it gain. I mean, if you got caught once, it would surely happen again. That logic was clearly lost on the Patriots who clearly cheated this weekend. As far as I'm concerned, they have cheated in every game they've won in the last 10 years. Good luck proving they didn't.

And Jimmie, I know what you are going to say. At least they never got caught. Much less twice!
