Oh, did they do stuff other than zombies? I didn't watch last night because the zombie myths were never my favorite.

My cable guide says Gold Rush is on at it's regular slot but after there's just a listing for "Discovery Channel Programming" It seems like the on-screen guide for Discovery is totally FUBAR. All those wierd 1-min shows, shows in ALL CAPS (that when recorded have no relationship to the description), the normal times of Gold Rush and Mythbusters totally missing, etc.

So gummy bears will totally power a rocket, provided you process the gently caress out of them. I also really love that their flashbacks aren't ignoring the build team.

muscles like this? posted:I'm glad they redid the ax zombie thing because it was kind of bad that they were counting Adam tapping the zombies in the original myth as a kill. It was still bad because instead of tapping them, he no longer had to even touch them, just swing hard enough. This is an issue because during his test, it took three swings for him to crack the skull. By eliminating the need for accuracy and the need for pulling an axe out of someone's shoulders, he had a ridiculous advantage over Jamie, who still had to actually aim. Also, Jamie didn't have the benefit of bullets potentially passing through his targets. It was completely bad is what I am saying, even if the shooting part looked fun as hell. Edit: Jamie also seemed to insist on shooting the gun in a fairly inefficient way. Pulling it away after each shot, instead of trying to acquire targets more quickly and fire more accurately.

Kind of funny how this week's Mythbusters had Adam talking about how dangerous the boiling solution was right before it exploded everywhere.

Its a pretty bad show, but I did like that Matt dude. edit - haha holy poo poo quote:What’s less apparent, however, are the allegations that Joe Teti was fired from Dual Survival following an incident last May in which he killed a dog during the filming of the Season Six finale. According to a TMZ report from last spring, a group of stray cats ran on set, fleeing from a stray dog. When the dog nabbed one of them, Joe went after it, and managed to rescue the cat while either killing or injuring (there are conflicting stories on this point) the dog.

Still love the fact that Todd thinks he's doing better than Parker, 2700 ounces and he has like three loving wash plants and a crew of 20 while Parker is at 3000 ounces with one washplant and like 7 or 8 guys.

Sig Hansen had a heart attack. He did smoke like 5 packs a day for decades. Hope he retires.

He told everyone that yes he was having really bad chest pains on camera but GODDAMNIT WE GOTTA FINISH OUT THIS HERE STRING O' POTS!!! Apparently the Discovery camera crew basically forced him to turn around and dock the boat so he could be airlifted to a hospital.

My trucker uncle went from smoking 2 packs a day to vaping years ago before anyone knew what e-cigarettes were. The problem back then was it was impossible to get the juice except by mail order so he'd always run out. I'm sure whoever sells it in Dutch Harbor makes a killing.

I imagine that the deck guys pretty routinely lose cigs to waves or whatnot so having a relatively expensive non-disposable thing in that situation seems like a bad idea.

Anyway, the dude should retire now. Working grueling hours with tons of stress after a loving heart attack is just begging to follow in Phil's footsteps. I remember looking up one of Sig's properties a few years ago when I was drunk. He's pretty loving loaded and can probably step aside while still collecting decent money just owning the boat. Let Edgar step in or something.

Bringing back Josh or Jake or whatever the kid was training to be captain on Northwestern to co-captain with Edgar would be a great narrative point for Discovery on a show that is pretty well circling the drain.
