Mythbusters

Unless you are watching Sunday night football why has Sunday night become girls night on TV???  I am sick of shows like "Desperate Housewives" or "Brothers and Sisters".  Thanks ABC and by the way what has happened to you, please write back.  You could watch the Steelers/Ravens game on NBC tonight I mean they are playing for first place in the AFC NORTH, but what if you are not a football fan or what if by Sunday you are simply footballed out...  Well I may have the answer for you.  Flip over to The Discovery Channel and check out Mythbusters.  It looks like they are having a mini-marathon starting at 3pm Central Standard Time today.  Mythbusters is one of those shows where at the end of the day you wish you had their job and who wouldn't want their jobs.  Mythbusters is a little science, geek, comedy, good friends, explosions, and adventure all rolled into one show.  Heck some people tune in just see who is going to get hurt next.  In the end you just might learn a thing or two as well.  The show stars special effects experts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, who use elements of the scientific method to test the validity of rumors, myths, movie scenes, adages, Internet videos and news stories.  Mythbusters reminds me alot of my childhood growing up.  Boys get into trouble.  Boys like to blowing things up.  When you grow up MEN like to drive fast cars.  All of these elements exist in Mythbusters.  So are you telling me that this show is only for the guys?  Heck no this show is for MEN AN D WOMEN of all ages.  Think about a myth or saying that you have ALWAYS wanted to know to be TRUE or FALSE - that's the show proving or disapproving things to be True or False or in some cases you get a BIG MAYBE...  In so shows you can actually learn how to survive worst case scenarios.  For example, in one episode the guys showed you what to do and what not to do if your car ended up in the water.  The first thing that the guys learned that it would be very dangerous for you to actually panic in this situation because you exert more oxygen when you might have to hold your breathe and swim back to the top.  Your BEST option is to allow the car to become submerged under the water and allow the inside to fill up with water (yes this is part where you don't panic).  Once the car fills up with water in the inside the door should be easy to open.  Remember if you don't panic you should have been able to prepare yourself to hold your breathe while not exerting to much energy allowing you to hold your breathe until you surface.  I would recommend their "other" option though.  Go to a discount store like a Wal-Mart and buy a "glass breaker" so you could immediately break your car window when your car hits the water.  I know Wal-Mart sells a key chain that has a window breaker on it because after watching that episode of Mythbusters I went out and bought one.  Mythbusters is a GREAT show for the whole family to laugh and learn at the same time.  REVIEW 4 OUT OF 5 KITKATS.  Please leave your thoughts, memories, or comments or your own review about the show.
