blackwingedboy snuck me a birthday present: Mythbusters Season One.

I cannot express quite how excited I got about this.

No, really. I don't exactly know why I am so entertained by this show except that who could possibly not be entertained by professional debunkers who get a kick out of blowing stuff up?

One of the stars describes it as "Jackass meets Mr. Science", and that's probably why I watch the show and fantasize about dropping grad school to join the build team.

Seriously. [frozen] chicken gun, Rocket car, can a fat person really get stuck in an airplane toilet seat?

I am so excited to watch these that I really have to leave them wrapped until the quarter's papers are finished.
