Not for those with vertigo. Pretty awesome hike if not a death walk.

An AN member came across this letter online and sent it to me so I could have a good laugh. I thought I'd pass it on by posting it in one of the *odds 'n' ends* type threads.
He said it's *supposedly* the 2007 PC Magazine Editor's Choice for best web mail letter... or best customer service letter. Anyway, here is the letter that was passed on to me... regarding Always Maxi-pads. Quote:

While I take her point, damn if the idea of having a little F-16 in my pants doesn't seem hard to pass up. Who needs sex when you can get about with a miniature fighter jet in your underwear?

Like one of these?
It's not going to be mine, I tell you. It's one of the few survivors from a once grand collection. |

Turkish Get-Up is a weight exercise where you start on your back with weight held straight up on one arm, then (keeping the arm upright throughout) stand up, and in reverse motion lie back down. This dude gets a little creative with the type of weight. http://youtube.com/watch?v=G_JlNGC1kk0 OT: anyone happen to know if there's a trick to save a video from Youtube, and how? |

So it was really just a matter of downloading the file and renaming it.
I thought Youtube would have somehow locked it, like streaming the video data inside a Flash app. Nice that they didn't! |

Ah, I see. I didn't have any idea that there existed a show by that name. Wikipedia had the dope on it, though.

Something Awful has a Comedy Goldmine feature about unconventional bear traps.
Unfortunately their last image fails; PROTIP: Don't make chess jokes when you don't even know how a pawn and a king moves PROTIP2: It doesn't get any better if white makes the first move. |

That is pretty damn funny Mugge.
Howeeeever... the white chessmen in the picture aren't labelled and might be pieces, in which case white could certainly trap the black king. (Though the diagonal layout does imply the sketcher intended them to be pawns.) But even if they're pawns, one has to assume there's a white king sitting lazily somewhere else on the board. The artist's a right patzer in any case. |

Speaking of chess... of Gary Kasparov, flying penises, and serious security guards (video).

Now that I'm thinking about it. The pawn reaching the end of the board would get promoted to any piece of the white players choice. If the only other piece on the board is the white king, then the black king is as good as check mate.
But as the set-up is shown, the black king still isn't trapped, though black might not win the game. PROTIP3: Chess jokes should show the entire board because chess people are nerds that can't just chuckle at it and get on with their lives. Here's one of my favourites: The Perry Bible Fellowship |

I just saw SPAM®'s official website. Boy, oh boy, have they got some smart folks designing this place.

Filibuster Cartoons You don't really have to offer forfeit when you have your opponent utterly check mate. And don't ask me how the pieces ever ended up like that. |
