Don't try this at home

Will It Blend.com is my new favorite website due to the glowstick experiment. Apparently they take all sorts of things that you shouldn't stick in a (-n industrial strength) blender, and see what happens.

I'd really like to see what the blades look like afterwards.

(And btw, it turns out to be a marketting gimmick for Blendtec, but that doesn't make it any less cool.)

Teens die in car in icy pond

I wish there were a little more factual information in this article. Five teens driving to school went off the road and into an icy pond. It took rescue crews 2 hours to get the car out, at which time the kids were found with their Bibles in their laps, still buckled into their seats, two already dead and the other three did not make it.

The part that's confusing me is if they had time to get their Bibles out, why did they not try to get out of the car?

I'm sure that sammka does - the pic's of an aye-aye. *grin*
