They have made a substance that can take a direct blast of 1 kg of dynamite and heat up to 2,400 degrees.
This stuff is so cool! You can read about it here
I want to see them make lightweight body armor out of it for the troops and police. Course, it’s such a good insulator that they might get too hot and that wouldn’t be a good thing, would it?
I love McDonald’s. A Quarter Pounder with cheese and fries *drool*. I know it’s bad for me and has about a billion calories. I know I am going to have to run an extra three miles just for even thinking about a Quarter Pounder, but I DON’T CARE!!! It’s just sooo good!
The wife is a White Castle fiend, she likes their little cheeseburgers with extra pickles but I just can get behind a steam cooked hamburger, which just seems wrong somehow.
Can you tell I just went and got lunch? Three guesses where and the first two don’t count.
What a bunch of crap, the mayor of Brussels won’t allow a 9-11 demonstration in remembrance of the victims because it might “alienate the Muslims”, but he will allow a Muslim demonstration saying that 9-11 was caused by the Zionists and Jews so they could blame it on the Muslims.
The Brussels mayor, the Socialist Freddy Thielemans, has, on 9th of August 2007 sent out a press release in which he has banned a demonstration with a minute of silence to commemorate the victims of 9/11 on the 11th sept in Brussels. The reason for the prohibition is that he says he cannot guarantee public safety and that he won’t disturb the Islamic section of the population in Brussels.

This is the typical crap from a victim mentality. Maybe if I do what they want they will leave me alone and go pick on someone else. Maybe if I just give him my money he will be nice to me next time because I did what he wanted.
WRONG!
Next time he will know that you will give him the money again. Why try finding a new victim who might actually fight back when you already have one that you know won’t?
I learned a long time ago the best way to deal with a bully (which is all terrorists really are) is to kick the crap out of them so hard that they never want you to come after them again.
Terrorists and radical Muslims use fear to get what they want. Fear of riots, fear of an attack, and fear of violence. The only way to stop it is to confront them without fear and make THEM afraid of US, and they sure as hell won’t be afraid of us if we keep doing stupid crap like this.

So, because of some really bad advice that I was stupid enough to listen to we decided against the apartment that we liked in San Francisco and started looking for a new one because we were under the impression that the place we had locked up at the beginning of August wasn’t safe.
Now we find out that the advice we were give was totally wrong and we gave up a perfectly good place to live for no reason except that the person who gave us the advice thinks that everyone should live in the city for “the experience of it” and now we still don’t have a place to live when we have to be out there at the beginning of the month!!
Can you say “Major stress”?? I knew you could.
So, I now have to contact the apartment we were all set to move into in the first place and pray that they still have an apartment available. That’s what I get for listening to someone who kept trying to convince me that living anywhere but in San Francisco was crazy because “the commute is sooo far from outside the city”. It’s a thirty minute bus ride for pete’s sake, that isn’t very far as commutes go and since I’m not driving I can just read a book for that half hour.
Now everyone keeps saying “You should try Craig’s list”, which I did until every apartment I found that would allow cats wanted a $1500 to $3000 deposit for a little piece of crap hole in the wall.
Yay for freaking Craig’s list… whatever.
I’m beginning to hate San Francisco and I’m not even out of Ohio yet.
I want this shirt for my first day of school.
