Mythbusters Death

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

There has been a very unpleasant accident at the Mythbusters. Death has never been something that they were looking for with that show, but now it has made a presence in it.

We all know this show from the myths that they have been busting. There are many movies that display impossible events, and Adam, Jamie, Kari, Grant and Troy have been constantly proving them possible – or impossible.

Erik Gates has made numerous appearances in this TV-show during the years. He was the owner of Gateko Electric, and was the proud owner of a rocketry related website along with his brother. This was the reason they were involved in Mythbusters in the first place. Since they had knowledge in explosives and rocketry, they could assist on some of the myths that were busted.

The Mythbusters Death did not happen during the the making of an episod as to our knowledge, but instead while Erik was working on a site – together with a business associate, they were walking on the top of a 30 foot building when he suddenly fell. Falling through a skylight was not enough to take the life of this Buster, but instead he died in hospital after suffering from multiple blut injuries.

The MB team sends their regards and express their deepest symphaties to the family of Erik Gates

There are cases like this where small businesses get over run by million dollar companies which have dozens of lawyers covering their backs. Usually their cases have a foundation that makes sense, but in some situations like the interesting case of Monster Energy Drink attacking Vermonster beer the claims are considered outrageous.

Rock Art Brewery is a home based business in Vermont that has been brewing a fine beer called Vermonster for a long time, and now gets threatened by a large company called Hansen Natural Corp that their Vermonster has a name that is too close to their Monster Energy Drink.

Rock Art Brewery is taking action against this and has already contacted trademark lawyers that have given their professional opinion about the incident and are stating that there is no copyright infingement.

Rock Art Brewery fears that the million dollar company can easily run them over in court because of the money that they can afford to spend on the case, and is hoping that the citizens of the United States would take this as public as they can, and do what is possible to make the existense of small businesses in the USA possible.

Do you already know what Monster Energy Drink tastest like?

By the time it gets that far it would be already decreased to a category 2 hurricane.

Great Mall Shooting

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Great MallThere has been a fatal shooting in the Great Mall of Milpitas. One man was killed in the two story building and the mall remained open for the rest of the day. The police closed the part of the mall where the Great Mall Shooting took place, and business was continued in a normal fashion.  For now police are not giving out the identity of the victim to the public. Most likely they want to keep it private until they can inform the victims family and friends.

Milpitas is a city in California which is located right next to the Silicone Valley. The name comes from a mexican word milpa, which means a crop growing system.  The Great Mall is the former residence of The Ford Mustang/Shelby factory and when it closed it’s doors early in 1984 it was converted to a shopping mall in 1994.

National Grouch Day

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

It is here this year once again as it is going to be time for the National Grouch Day once again. What is it? Well basically it is the day of the year when you are allowed to whine about every single thing you can think about. It does not matter if you are happy, today you must look like you are not! If you think that something is funny, you must not admit that it is. You are allowed though to laugh at someone elses misery but when someone asks you about it, you have to deny it!
