Perhaps Pittsburgh Steelers’ linebacker James Harrison just doesn’t feel like toeing the line between politics and sports. Or maybe he just doesn’t like President Obama, either way Harrison said he will accept an invite to the White House, when the Steelers don’t win the Super Bowl.
Maybe that interception return affected more than just the oxygen flow to his lungs.
Stick-in-the-mud organizations like the Electronic Privacy Information Center, the Privacy Coalition and the American Civil Liberties Union are concerned about new airport security scanners that image your body under your clothes to detect metal objects and liquids.
They call this a “virtual strip search,” which would replace the traditional metal detector walkthrough and follow-up groin massage.
(This thought in itself is disturbing as we look forward to our pre-flight happy ending that calms our jitters. Fortunately, there’s still booze.)
Clearly, these “civil liberties” organizations are a bunch of prudes trying to conceal our bodies. In an age of constant twitter updates, breastfeeding photos on Facebook and amateur porn stars on BangBus, who are these ludites to speak for us?
We’re gonna be stars, dammit, and that’s why we don’t wear underwear.
Hey, dorkface, you know how you got picked on all the time in high school? Oh, don’t worry about me dredging up those repressed memories. Thanks to science, it would now appear that you’re invulnerable!
Sadly, what’s not mentioned in the article is that while having a weird appearance may help you avoid becoming dinner, you’re probably more likely to be found unattractive by the opposite sex. Thank you science for telling us what is obvious to the human population once again.
When you go out into the forest, you know the enemy is watching. They are everywhere. From the birds reporting on your position to the mosquitoes harassing you so you can’t make a clear decision. However, we all know the risks of running into a wild animal, you know, the big kind.
That’s exactly what happened to a man from British Columbia (which is neither British, nor Colombian) last week. The 21-year old man was trying to hitchhike when he ran into a cougar, which he quickly decided did not want to give him a lift. The cougar watched him from a perch above and followed him as he walked. He called his girlfriend, who called police, as the cougar got closer. Finally, the man broke into a run and the cougar gave chase.
The ferocious cougar pounced on the man in an instant. It didn’t look good for our hero, but he grabbed a rock and bashed the cougar over the head until it ran off. Get this: the man was unhurt.
