Nov 8 2007CD Tesla Turbine Nutcase Is At It Again
"Mr. Fix It" Rick is at it again, this time attempting to carve a pumpkin with his CD Tesla Turbine. He uses compressed air to power the thing, and has modified the turbine from last time to ensure a bit more safety. The damn video is almost 9 minutes long so I recommend just jumping around -- you'll get the idea. And the idea is that you could carve a pumpkin better by throwing knives at it. As a matter of fact, my dog carved a better pumpkin for Halloween this year, and all he did was eat the damn thing when I wasn't looking.

Rick seems to still hold onto his boyhood dream of being a serial killer; those black leather gloves really do the trick.

Davis: you have time to read blogs, but not watch pointless videos? It's practically equal levels of time waste.
