jairust on YouTube shows himself driving around town launching rockets from his motorcycle.
I made rocket pods for the sides of my ‘06 CBR that shoot homemade rockets with the push of a button. Some of the rockets in the video did not fly very well but I have got the problem under control so watch for another video!! Pay attention to the last two clips they are special!!!
Some may call him a dumb-ass, I think it is kind of cool but pointless. The rockets appear to be standard model rocket engines that when launched go in any random direction. Probably It’s a bad idea to show yourself on YouTube doing dangerous and illegal activities on public roads.
A rig like this would not be hard to make. When I was a kid, I made missiles out of model rocket engines. My design included fins mounted directly on a rocket engine with a nose cone attached to the top of the engine. The nose cone was filled with gun powde, the nose would explode when the ejection charge went off (it helped to remove the clay from the top of the engine). Production costs were too high for a kid so I only made a few, but they launched horizontally and made spectacular explosions.
I’m the official turkey cooker and carver this year and therefore interested in Alton Brown’s video on YouTube on how to carve a turkey. His suggestion is to place the turkey on a cutting board, using a towel as traction, and to cut out each of the main parts of the turkey.
New Mexico is in the news with video of a University of New Mexico woman’s soccer player beating the shit out of BYU players. The video of Elizabeth Lambert has been making it’s way across the web and although KOB says all of the video of Elizabeth Lambert has been removed from YouTube, I found a video from the Associated Press which shows some of the incidents.
Born Elizabeth Ann Lambert on December 29, 1988 … enjoys camping and surfing in her spare time … favorite food is tacos … is majoring in University Studies with a focus on Occupational Therapy
There’s a Occupational Therapy joke in there somewhere. What the profile fails to mention is that she was indefinitely suspended from UNM soccer. Although her official statement was that she was sorry (I hope so), I really wonder what her deal is. I hope she tells more about why she was so rough.
The boring and uninteresting Qwest building in Phoenix Arizona was imploded on September 27th. The explosion is apparently going to be part of the TLC TV show called “Dynamite Family”.
The long awaited Tron sequel will be released in 2010. Tron Legacy is the sequel to the original Tron that came out in 1982. In 1982 no one could have imagined that I would be writing about the sequel to Tron on my Blog.
The press release from Disney says the film will be the same as the original but with some new characters.
Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.
YouTube has made every single copy of Tron Legacy non embedable. Which means I couldn’t use their version on my site. Exactly how that’s supposed to help promote the movie I don’t know. Thanks to TrailerAddict.com for making a embedable version.
A passenger waiting to board Flight 1195, destined for Phoenix, noticed another passenger handing a carry-on bag directly to the airline employee, said Officer Christine O'Brien, a Philadelphia police spokeswoman.

Just as Adrian sat up in bed, a stray bullet pierced his Maryvale home and struck him in the back, permanently paralyzing him from the belly button down.

TidBITS Media Creation: iMovie ‘09 8.0.3 Adds New Hidden Features – Apple released iMovie '09 8.0.3 this week, a seemingly minor update that "addresses general compatibility issues, improved overall stability and fixes a number of other minor issues."

Don’t expect DEA raids on N.M. medical marijuana dispensaries – The nation’s top cop said Friday that marijuana dispensaries participating in New Mexico’s fledgling medical marijuana program shouldn’t fear Drug Enforcement Agency raids, a staple of the Bush administration.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, speaking in Albuquerque during a meeting focused on border issues, including drug trafficking, said his department is focused “on large traffickers,” not on growers who have a state’s imprimatur to dispense marijuana for medical reasons.
A Toy Story 3 Teaser Trailer is now available on YouTube (in HD). The trailer doesn’t really show any details of what the movie will be about. Hopefully it’s not a bastardized Disney production but a real Pixar movie.
Here’s some video I shot of President Obama’s drive to Rio Rancho High School on Thursday. It was recorded and uploaded in HD to YouTube.
The first part of the video is the drive down Loma Colorado. I couldn’t drive and film at the same time so set the camera on the dashboard. You can see the camera crews and protesters on the left. The New Mexico Independent says there were about 100 protestors.
The second part of the video shows the presidents cadillac one and the following motorcade driving up Northern Blvd. The Lowes parking lot gave a great vantage point. In retrospect I should have walked down and filmed from the corner of Northern Blvd and Loma Colorado.
For some reason strangers always come up and talk to me and a several people asked me why we were all watching. Many were pissed that they couldn’t drive down Northern Blvd.
The Mythbusters were testing weather two semi trucks that collide at highway speeds into a car would turn the car into a pancake and fuse the semis trucks together. The were not able to prove either scenarios.
In usual Mythbusters fashion, they have to see what it will take to do what they were testing. To turn a car into a pancake, they went to New Mexico Tech to use their rocket rail to smash the car. There is a video of the results on YouTube.
They also fused sheets of metal together using explosives. If I can find that video I will add it.
