    Default Health Alert!

    I was reading that other forum and some guy suggested all feather blades were radioactive. So just for laughs I gathered my feather DE blades and got out my professional grade Geiger Counter and the meter tanked at the end and all kinds of lights and sirens went off and it said tilt and then a skull and crossbones lit up. Wow there was enough radiation to kill a million people within minutes.

    So as a friendly free service I want all of you to gather your feather blades in a lead lined box and send them to me. I have a homemade rocket and I'll load them inside and blast them off into outer space so they don't harm anyone.

    It's kind of funny, yeah, but to be honest this kind of stupidity is really damaging Japan's future. Japan is an export based economy--and people are freaking out senselessly and not buying Japanese exports. So at a time when Japan really needs all the income it can get, exports are dropping like a rock.

    Just for the record: THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER in buying anything from Japan. The bananas in your kitchen are more radioactive than anything you'd get imported from here.

    For the love of all that is holy, will someone please, PLEASE, stuff a sock in her mouth! I really try to maintain a gentlemanly comportment on this site, but her voice seriously makes blood shoot out of my eyes.

    We need far less people like her in this world. Why ask a question and then refuse to listen to the answer?! She sounds like just another (and please don't take offence here) just another american midday T.V soap opera. Mind numbingly boring and repititious.

    That gives me a great idea for a cheap nuclear power plant in my basement.
