On Escape pods
-Recently I was flipping through the channels on my televion device when I found an interesting action movie on. It was one of those action movies that you can often find at night when you’re awake with insomnia. In this particular movie, right as the action hero is about to break through the wall of gaurds protecting the room that the evil mastermind has retreated to, the evil fiend launches himself out the roof in his handy escape pod. This led me to wonder, how many times can a villain use an escape pod and still have it maintain its dramatic nature? For example, if the villain used his escape pod only to find that his nemesis had somehow been able to join him on the vehicle could he then launch off into another escape pod? how long could this continue? After pondering the question for some hours I decided that the maximum nuber of escape pods was two. And it would take a really impresive actor to pull off the evil mastermind who got away in two escape pods.
-That is all.
On Werewolves
-As mentioned in the small article on the side bar, Werewolves, and more importantly the infected humans who serve as hosts to the beasts, are largely outcasts of our modern society. The scientifically named Homo Lupus are shunned to the forests and abandoned castles of the world. However, Werewolves are only active for a period of about three days around a full moon. To help you avoid any Werewolf attacks I have included a list of full moon dates for 2008 and 2009 below.

On Concealed Weaponry
-One of my fortes has long been concealed weaponry. Of course the only more effective means of damage than a weapon is a hidden weapon. This convenient chart measures the two most important attributes of a concealed weapon. The first being “coolness” and the second being “effectiveness.” I do not think either necessitates any further explanation.
