Extreme Ironing

Gable and Lombard. Strawberries and cream. Batman and Robin. Some things are just meant to go together, or be together, or when you think of one, you automatically think of the other. Then there are those items that you just would never associate as being paired together, even if they are BlueTooth compatible. Today's Warped site features just such a pair.

The name of the site is Extreme Ironing. This is the latest extreme sport, one that combines the thrills of an outdoor adventure while you're getting your shirt and pants pressed. This activity manages to combine the highs of dangerous and exciting with the dull and mundane.

There is a fascinating gallery of where this sport has taken the participants, as well as a brief history of how it all started. Most important, however, is the reviews section, where you can find the best irons and ironing boards, both individually and as sets. I mean, heaven forbid you don't want to be in the middle of Death Valley and have your board fold up on you. do you?

This site combines a lot of elements, and speaks volumes about how far people will go to have a good time. Some would argue that some people have way too much time on their hands if they participate. To those naysayers, I say "Phooey", and give this site a Warp Factor 7 rating!
