My problem with spontaneous human combustion is that never seems to happen to the "right" people.

FBI Plans for Armageddon
1999-11-05 07:26:21
The Feds have made a list,
they're checking it
twice,
you'd best believe
they know who's naughty
and nice.
Arm-a-geddon
is coming
to town!
The FBI has come out with a report listing The Usual Suspects for end-of-the-world millennial madness. If you ever wanted a list of hate groups and all-around BAD people, this is your list!
The FBI has (rather grandly) titled the report "Project Megiddo", which is the hill in northern Israel where the battle of Armageddon, the end of the world, is supposed to take place. Apparently the FBI is concerned that some of these groups will get a little IMPATIENT just waiting around for the world to end and, being (mostly) good Christians and all, they might just try to help the world on its way.
Just a little too darn helpful of these groups, I'd say.
In order to prevent mass suicides, bombings, terrorist attacks and other not-quite-bright plans of these groups from becoming reality, the FBI has compiled this list.
So you nasty people out there, you'd better not commit mass suicide or you'll be in BIG trouble! The FBI is watching you!

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
