What seems to be a mild-mannered concrete block is actually…

A super home! Fighting for truth, justice, and the American way!

Well, not really. Instead, it’s The Safe House. Designed by architecture firm KWK Promes, this 6,100 sq. ft. fortress is designed with no safety feature left unimplemented. A series of security codes are required just for entry, which leads to the ‘safety zone’, an area surrounded by concrete walls. As the home opens, a drawbridge lowers connecting it to an indoor swimming pool while walls and shutters open, and a rolling aluminum gate opens to an expansive garden view.

No word on pricing, or if its even available for purchase, but if I got a hold of that property, I’d paint ‘BAT CAVE’ in big, sloppy letters on the side, and hide a bunch of cool, million-dollar gadgets inside.

The folks over at hackaday.com built this sporty looking cantenna with parts from a broken airsoft pistol. Although I cringe at calling anything tactical simply due to its color configuration (it is black), this is still a pretty neat project. However, I don’t think it needs picatinny rails.

The page link also includes a tutorial to make your own, so go nuts.

Make your wedding just right with a camouflage bridal garter from advantagebridal.com. Available in multiple styles of camo, such as woodland-ish, desert-ish, pink, and blue among others. There are also some with branch specific insignia, like Marines or the above Air Force.

In one of the more insane events involving fast food in recent times, a man in San Antonio, Texas got into a firefight with police over the price of Taco Bell’s Beefy Crunch Burrito rising in price from $.99 to $1.49. The man, who is currently unidentified, tried to order 7(?!) burritos and was told the price wasn’t as low as he expected it to be (the lower price was part of a promotion, which ended) so he shot at the manger through the drive-thru window with an airsoft gun then pulled out a semi-auto assault rifle and pistol in the parking lot. He then fled as the police were called, exchanged fire with several officers, and hid in his hotel room which was later flooded with tear gas when he finally surrendered and was arrested.

Now he faces three attempted capital murder charges, plus whatever else they’ll try and charge him with, over “food” that doesn’t even feature the USDA’s minimum required amount of beef for taco and burrito filling. That, and the fact that he felt he needed seven of them is the real surprise here. All I can say it that must have been one serious case of the munchies.
