Saw VI Movie Poster Actually Depicts CAT-5 Network Cable Crimping Tool

I was out running this morning and while waiting for the light to change, I got a chance to take a close look at the new Saw VI movie poster. And then I noticed something funny about one of the “scary tools” they used as a prop in the photo.

So, the thing that makes the big V in this picture …

Which makes me a lot more willing to see the movie, actually.

Now mind you, there are certain parts of my body that I wouldn’t want to crimp (or have crimped, for that matter), but having used these things dozens of times, the image not strike fear into my heart.

I Prefer Paris: Paris Public Toilets.

Examining the inevitable result of French gastronomy. These are above and beyond the nicest public toilets I ever imagined existed. The ones I’ve used in Japan where basically just an open hole in the ground with no-slip pads all around.

These make me want to go to Paris and be homeless. Would that mean I’d no longer comprehend knock-knock jokes?
