Speaking of Ballistics…

Posted on July 26, 2005 By Tom No Comments on Speaking of Ballistics…

Talk about violence in the workplace, the guys at Officeguns.com are either sorely underemployed or on the verge of having to look for a new job.  Their website is dedicated to the construction, testing, and documentation of weapons created from simple office supplies.  Most of these involve the "Mauly" clips (Bulldog clips for those of us not in Norway), rubber bands, and writing implements.  Here are a few answers from their FAQ…

Have you no shame?

There is no norwegian word for the english word shame.

Do you believe in God?

We believe there is a power greater than man. There is a force in the universe stronger than we can ever imagine. It’s called Murphy’s Law.

Why don’t you use imperial units?

We are proud members of the Rebel Alliance.

 I have to confess to creating a Mauly as soon as I read this.  I couldn’t get it to work, much to the relief of the philodendron sitting on the edge of my desk.
