Engineers Turned Into Human Cannonballs to Recreate Intel Chime [Intel]

Engineers Turned Into Human Cannonballs to Recreate Intel Chime [Intel]: "
I've suspected that Intel's engineers were somewhat crazy, but I never thought they'd hop into cannons and shoot themselves toward giant tube-shaped bells in order to recreate that catchy 'Intel inside' chime. Ding-ba-bing-ba-ding-ouch! Looks painful, even if probably fake.
The stunt really looks like it should result in some major neck injuries, safety gear or not. So, these men and women of Intel are either far braver and crazier than I, or there's definitely some clever editing going on. [Intel via All Things D]

The Innocence of Youth

A father watched his young daughter playing in the garden. 
He smiled as he reflected on how sweet and pure his little girl was. 
Tears formed in his eyes as he thought about her seeing the wonders of 
nature through such innocent eyes.   
Suddenly she just stopped and stared at the ground. 
He went over to her to see what work of God had captured her attention.  
  
He noticed she was looking at two spiders mating. 
 'Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?' she asked. 
 'They're mating,' her father replied. 
 'What do you call the spider on top?' she asked 
 'That's a Daddy Longlegs,' her father answered. 
 'So, the other one is a Mommy Longlegs?' the little girl asked. 
 As his heart was filled with the joy of such a cute and innocent question he 
chuckled, 'No dear.. Both of them are  Daddy Longlegs' 
 
The little girl, looking a little puzzled, thought for a moment... then 
lifted her foot and  stomped them flat. 
 
'Well, that may be OK in California, but we're not having any of that 
shit in Texas ,' she said.
