    I looked up comal county and it's a little south of austin texas...

    The story doesn't say it was loaded or not.
    At least over here the yellow tape ring denotes training munitions. I'd expect that tube to be such as well. Probably some foolish recruit got bored of hauling it around and got rid of it...

    CCTV footage of pram hit by train released


    I'm guessing platforms slope down to drain water.

    Windows 7 Whopper, only in Japan



    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Indeed, dude.

    There's a video of CheapyD and CampingKev from Cheap Ass Gamer trying it. Look at all the grease and stuff dripping off of it while he tries to eat it.

    first time i have been on this site in a while and, man, guess what i had for dinner? or, more like, guess what i had for dinner, and have four patties sitting in the fridge for misc use the next couple days? fucking even just the three patties and fries was nearly heart stopping.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Five Technologies That Could Change Everything

    Orbiting solar panels without Orbital Elevators?

    Glad there's a Gundam watcher amongst scientists who isn't a blind fanatic. Or is it because Orbital Elevators are copyrighted by Sunrise? Either way, if it means the power bill goes down, I'm in.

    A receiving station a mile in diameter is one huge thing, though. But I guess if microwave to electricity conversion is cheap and the equipment durable, building such a grand receiver would be no problem, unlike building that big a solar plant.

    We've got plenty of space in outback Australia. Feel free to put up a few hundred of these or something....is what I'd like to say. (Always wanted to try this )

    I imagine it'd be more complicated though. Aboriginal Rights management might be one such issue.

    Speaking of Australia

    http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/stor...rom=public_rss

    At first glance this is just a marijuana article. However, Buff, if this is your neck of the woods you have a responsibility to stop it. No matter what charge you have, the police will not be required to prove grounds of suspicion in court. "Also, police will be given unprecedented powers to frisk people for drugs and weapons." This Premier Colin Barnett and his cronies in the Australian government sound like very dangerous people, they are threatening democracy and will be promptly taking all your rights away if the bill passes. Not to mention anyone who thinks weed is that dangerous in the first place has a vendetta. I bet he was raped as a child. By the Doobie Brothers.

    World's fattest man 'wanted to break record'

    Because being the world's fattest man is just so cool.

    You'd think the man would have the right to die happily if he can do so unassisted. And obviously he indeed can by eating that much. I don't understand at all they need to build a special ambulance for that whale so that they can force him to go through some surgery he doesn't even want.

    The UK is a strange country after all.

    i don't think there's anything wrong with the man psychologically.. I mean, I'm sure he didn't set out to break the record when he was in fit condition. When you get so out of shape, there's not much you can do. and he took the opportunity to go the extra yard to break a record. I respect the guys decision.

    though when it's costing taxpayers 175k a year, i can see why they'd try to force help on him..

    Ugh, I can only think about how rotted and decaying his flesh probably is. So sad.

    Yeah, there's a lot of glory in being a gluttonous slob. Before long, some other rotund bastard will eat a few more pizzas than he did, break his record, nullify the little bit of meaning he brought to his miserable life, and he and his legacy will disappear into obscurity just like the majority of us. Good game, Fatty Mcgee. I'm sure your parents are extremely proud of you and smiling up at your fatass from hell.

    I love hateful ranting. I don't really hold anything against this guy. More power to him. Afterall, There's obviously no-one else heroic enough to step up to the (dinner)plate(kekeke) and risk life(arterial blockage) and limb(diabetes) to show the world what it takes to become a 1:1 scale replica of Jabba the Hut. God speed, Fatty Mcgee.
