  1. Highly radioactive wasp nest found at Savannah River Site AIKEN, S.C. - A radioactive wasp nest was discovered earlier this month in South Carolina by workers at the Savannah River Site, according to a report from the U.S. Department of Energy. Employees who routinely check radiation levels at the Savannah River Site near Aiken found a wasp nest on July 3 on a post near tanks where liquid nuclear waste is stored, according to a report from the U.S. Department of Energy. The nest had a radiation level 10 times what is allowed by federal regulations, officials said. The workers sprayed the nest with insect killer, removed it and disposed of it as radioactive waste. No wasps were found, officials said. Oh great, they escaped. Now we got radioactive fucking wasps roaming the countryside to add to the list of shit gone sideways.
  2. That kid would have kicked Junior's ass if Mom hadn't shown up to save him.
  3. A wee bit of justice. Very wee, but at least he lost his certification.
  4. Insider Tip: Don't buy Loctite from Hot Springs Freightliner. They tried to charge me $300 for the dab they used working on my flywheel. I offered to replace the whole tube instead.
  5. Well age, this did not.
  6. And here I thought I got ripped off paying $400 for a Bendix air compressor in 1988. It's all a racket and they know they've got you by the balls.
  7. Early damage reports from Hawaii
  8. HBO Sports did a magnificent documentary before he died. Like you he was an iconic voice in my life. Wide World of Sports was a must watch on Saturday. I watched Munich play out in real time on our first color TV.
  9. Best steak I've had in Vegas was at Vic & Anthony's. Severely underrated. Also, just saw this: Rumor: Downtown Grand Reportedly Stops Paying Vendors

  13. The writing fell off hard in Season 3. I liked the show but it became a struggle to watch.

    It's a great movie. Could have sworn there was a thread on it. The kid bugged the shit out of me.
  15. Mark Tsurkis, who lives in Miami and Colorado Springs, told CBS News Miami he was "coming from one home to another home" when the terrifying moment happened right before they went airborne. "During the speed-up, when the plane almost took off, we heard a loud boom, and I said 'That's not good,'" he said. Tsurkis told CBS News Miami that he believes one of the wheels blew up and damaged the aircraft's suspension "because when the plane was slowing down, we saw another wheel pass the airplane on the left side." American Airlines later confirmed to CBS News Colorado that the aircraft experienced a maintenance issue with a tire and was taken out of service to be inspected by their maintenance team.
  16. I was entertained. Actually, I was more entertained than I expected. The cameos were excellent.

    It's more expensive than the Picasso robot and damn well worth it.
