This weekend Tammy and I watched the MythBuster’s Mega Movie Myths DVD from NetFlix. One of the myths covered is cutting through a sword with a sword. Highlight the next line for the results. (Hidden with magical spoilerific technology!)

->Busted. You can’t cut a sword with a sword. You might bend it to the breaking point, but that’s not the same thing.<-

It reminded me of a video I saw a while back in which they try to cut a bullet with a sword. It’s from Japanese TV, so they could be talking about short bread and shoe shine for all I know, but the video shows what happens when you shoot at a well built katana with a pistol.

You probably want to hit pause until the video fully loads before you try to watch it.

Clicky clicky.

I’m a bit of a germaphobe. I get pretty freaked out in drug stores when I know that 90% of the people who have touched things in there are just dripping with disease. Okay, maybe I’m more than “a bit” of a germaphobe. Anyway, here’s this week’s white board quip. Now I have to go wash my hands.

Why do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front?
