I got this on another list I'm on.  It's been forwarded around quite a bit.

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Forward to anyone you think might be up for their 15 minutes of fame! Er,
infamy...

Discovery Channel is looking for people for a new show, and I'm sure at
least a few of you are perfect fits.  Discovery Channel is searching for
talent for a mischievous "gang" of builders, scientists, inventors,
engineers, carpenters, welders, and designers for a new series where they
will be let loose on the world of machines to mod/repurpose/retro-engineer
everyday objects to devious ends for a new series. Do you get a thrill out
of designing your own contraptions, hacking gadgets, or modifying machines
and watching them in action?  DC seeks people who love to invent, hack,
tinker, build robots, race power tools, weld together bizarre machines that
drive, fly, climb, shoot flames or launch. More info at the bottom of this
announcement – the deadline is this Sunday February 1!

Discovery Channel Casting Call Info:
Handy skills could include: welding, knowledge of aeronautics, auto
mechanics, hydraulics, metal working, carpentry, pyro technics,
thermodynamics, aerodynamics, material science, electronics.
No prior television experience necessary -- just have a passion for the
subject.

us something you can do or a project you're working on
       -Be yourself, don't try to be a host, we are looking for individuals
with unique personalities, but keep in mind...have fun with this.
         -Play the video back to make sure sound and picture quality are
good

I've had a lot of regrets in my life, but most of them have to do with
things I never tried.
