"I spotted this in Albuquerque, NM at the Smith's grocery store. He was in the store for a long time, perhaps to buy more duct tape?"

What To Do With Your New Nickelback Album

andy.fail — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 06:00:00 -0800

Yep, it's that time of year again. The new Nickelback is out today and it's inevitably going to sell millions and millions of copies. I know it's the cool thing to do to hate on the post-grunge/country group but it's still shocking how popular these guys are. If you don't believe me check out their new song and see if you can make it through the whole thing. But don't say I didn't warn you. ~NSHA

A little known use of the common "For Sale" sign. This is what happens at tailgating when you leave the grill plate at home and your father improvises with whatever was in the back of the pickup!

Why Frederick, MD Is Called "Fredneck"

stephenwood51 — Mon, 18 Jun 2012 16:00:00 -0700

Three Department of Public Works employees painting a bridge over a creek. Two of them set up a work platform made out of two stepladders and a plank. The third, a little smarter that those two and probably a supervisor, elected not to use the work platform and erected his own stepladder in the creek. At least they have their hip-waders on.

Mad Science Monday: Cooking With Thermite

andy.fail — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 12:00:00 -0700

Last Thanksgiving we showed you how to cook a turkey using thermite. Now that summer is here (and somehow already coming to an end), it's time for something more BBQ-friendly. DIYer Ben Krasnow gathers his family and friends together for some nice beef kebabs. I'm not entirely sure about sticking glove-less hands near molten iron or ingesting something that's been touching said lava. http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2011/08/thermite-bbq.html http://thereifixedit.failblog.org/2010/11/25/white-trash-repairs-how-you-should-be-cooking-today/ http://benkrasnow.blogspot.com/
