You’re in my thoughts, not my typing.

LET’S FIX SPORTS!

Please consider voting for the LFSA, the “Let’s Fix Sports!” Act. Not “fix” as in, “sports are broken and need repair”.  Obviously sports are not broken.  They are world-wide billion-dollar industries with the most loyal customers, ever. No, the LFSA “fix” … Continue reading

The Rad Police are out there.

Edohiguma called a tentative “bs” on this story. Edo, in this case your gut was almost certainly wrong.  Folks given rad materials are vastly more radioactive than their surroundings.  Assuming they’re “fresh out of the oven”, they are 1000x or more “hotter” than the … Continue reading
