(6) Should I be worried if my career isn't listed as one of the Best Careers in 2008, or happy that no one else wants to do my job?

(7) The Decapitator is an artist who goes around the city modifying posters and removing heads. Let's be glad it hasn't gone beyond art.

(8) Is your Powerswing powerful enough to take out your opponent?

(9) After falling 47 stories, a window washer lives to tell the tale. Miraculous.

(10) Finally, in a rare deviation from my usual secretive nature, here I am trying a Slip ‘n Slide...
