Recall of the Week: Flaming Stihl Chain Saw
Although the recall for the Stihl MS 192 Chain Saw is not nearly as gory as we might have hoped, the fact that the chain saws can “leak fuel” and then spark to create a fire leads to some interesting mangling opportunities. It would, however, make the chopping down of trees for heat a more efficient process.

Recall of the Week: Bounce Bounce Baby!
Although we can think of few things more appealing than leaving a child to hang in an elastic death trap, we must avoid the Bounce Bounce Baby! Door jumper, despite its potential for comedy. It seems the jumper is a “Hazard: The plastic clamp that attaches the jumper seat to a door frame can break, which can cause the unit and child to fall to the floor. This poses an injury hazard to young children.”

For That Ads: Honda’s “Impossible Dream”
Honda’s new ad campaign highlights not their newest technical accomplishments, but instead the long history of mechanical innovation across a variety of powered vehicles—all set to the tune of ‘The Impossible Dream.’ It would seem that Honda is trying to remind us of its standing as an engineering giant, rather than another discount Asian import. Oddly enough, it worked on us. We had a moment of shock when we realized we would be just as likely to purchase an old Honda S600 to tool around in as we would be to purchase a British roadster, like an Austin Healey.

Recall of the Week: Chuck E. Cheese’s Chokey Whistle
It would appear that losing an arm to an animatronic bear is now the second-leading injury at Chuck E. Cheese. These plastic siren whistles have been recalled as a choking hazard, with reports that at least three children “swallow[ed] pieces of the plastic siren whistle,” setting the stage for the most festive asphyxiation ever.
