I would like to see all simple toolkits be replaced with a craftable swiss army knife. That would be interesting and make some sense... They can be used to do pretty much anything.

It never hurts as bad to be prepared, as it does to be unprepared.





true of so true

have some beer and pie Shrek "Im Prepaired for anything" ECPI

not a jab. but thought it sounded kinda neat




Prepared for anything, doesn't that make him a boyscout?

Anyway, Angus MacGyver kicks ass. I have Seasons One and Two on DVD here at home. It pays to work at Hastings.

Apparently, he doesn't know how to pick a cuff's lock the the blade of a Swiss Army Knife like MacGyver. Personally, I'd use the can opener to do it.

You never know when you'll need to get out of a pair of cuffs. The only fault I can see is that it seems he keeps the key in the bag in the trunk of his car, it'd be more handy to have it on his knife's keychain.

Actually I keep a handcuff key on one of my three keychains, and yes it is possible to pick the older handcuffs, but it much easier to get the cuffs off if you have a proper key

Yeah the move was great, except for the part where that woman was supposed to have had an epileptic attack because of the flashing light. That light was not flashing near fast enough to cause an attack.

I still think it's funny that Pokemon caused all those epileptic fits

Back before the hype, there was a show in Japan. After one particular episode of this wildly popular show, hospitals all across Japan recieved calls of epileptic siezures from a number of parents, flooding some smaller hospitals with young patients. It was a rather nasty situation for the television show.


So, it was of great relief to the producers of the show when the Video-game on which it was based changed it's name for a north-american release.


We call the 'epileptic show' Pokemon.

Oh, thanks for the clarification.



I can see it now:

"Pokemon cause epilepsy"at the next PTA meeting
