Mythbusters



Three things I really like are mythology (duh), Mythbusters, and The Onion.  So I was pleased to find this old article on The Onion combines the three.  There are no pictures, so I'll reprint the entire article here:

Mythbusters Team Struck Down by Zeus

SAN FRANCISCO—MythBusters hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, who dared challenge the sacred explanations of the order of the universe, were destroyed by Zeus Monday. "I soared ascending to the ethereal sky, and by merest nod massed a fearsome storm, and with mine lightnings struck down the naysayers Adam and Jamie," Zeus said in a press conference called to warn all doubters of his thunderous might. The MythBusters producers have issued a statement apologizing to the entire Olympian community and declared that, from now on, the program will focus only on myths unrelated to the Greek, Egyptian, or Norse pantheons.
