You really should watch this VIDEO all the way through to the end. I think that it is quite impressive. How about you?

If one has a few hours to kill one of the ways that one can kill it is to bungee jump in the nude if one times it correctly.

This VIDEO is a HOOT.

As one that used to heat our house with a high tech wood stove I have spent countless hours in the woods with a chain saw and hydraulic log splitter over the years. Between my friend and his dad the three of us could cut and split about three full cords a day.

But if we had the tool shown in this VIDEO it would have lent a whole new meaning to a hard day in the woods.

Neat machine! But they still have to stack the splits manually. Also, being an old industrial engineer, I believe they could improve their productivity even more by shuttling the uncut log into the cutting position while the splitter ram is working. Still beats the heck out of my log splitter!

The X-47B is really cool but given the choice I'd rather have one of those log-splitters.

This is from an E-mail that I received today.

After all the bad press over a few teachers who stepped out of line teaching songs to our children, this one is one you will be so proud to hear. At the end of the song you can order the sheet music.

Awesome. I hope this sweeps our country and gets sung in all our schools. The music teacher wrote the song and had all the third graders sing. Enjoy -- great message.

From the third graders of Tussing Elementary, Colonial Heights , Virginia .

NAW!! As much as I love to fly I would rather pilot the plane or at least be in it. Controlling it from afar would not be the same.

There is something to be said for "good old American ingenuity"
