The Phantom Black Ops is an aptly-named wrist instrument for silent professionals. Its green luminous hands and hour markers make it highly legible while wearing night vision goggles. In case you don’t regularly use night vision goggles as part of your daily routine, you probably aren’t a SEAL. No matter, you can use the Phantom Black Ops to do a number of other important jobs, like timing your dinner with the bi-directional rotating bezel.
No matter in which environment you use the Phantom Black Ops, you can count on its rugged dependability and super sleek design to keep you thrilled. The men of the U.S. Navy SEALs who wear this stealthy watch are not issued a Kobold, they each choose to own one individually. Kobold makes this possible by giving SEALs and other service members a healthy discount in recognition of the sacrifices they make.
The Phantom Black Ops arrives on Kobold’s Original Canvas Expedition Strap. Stainless steel or titanium bracelet (DLC-coated) optional.
The watch is covered by a 10-year warranty against material defects and inferior workmanship.
Designed, engineered, fabricated, assembled and tested in the United States from U.S. and imported components.

Until I personally visited the beaches at Big Sur, I did not realize that a nude woman could actually stand while pressing her shoulder blades against the calves of her legs. Impressive.
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so “profound” that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well:
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant. One anonymous student, however, wrote the following:
“First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, “It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,” and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct … leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting ‘Oh my God.’
