Last week we were discussing the possible effect of a bullet piercing the skin of an airliner at altitude. Oddly enough, last night I saw a promo for next week's "Mythbusters" show on the Discovery channel. Apparently, they're going to be conducting some experiments to find out exactly what effect...

Two moose hunters from Eleutris are flown into a remote area in Alaska. They have a good hunt, and each bags a large moose.
