Greg G announced on "The Five" that Tom Shillue will be on the panel tonight (Mon), dashing rumors that he had forgotten to get back on the plane when it refueled in Omaha. 😉
Yesterday’s video failed to upload. We’ll see how this one does.it was called “by the fire…with no fire”
Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
“A fatal”
Ass goose?
We stayed at a little motel in Arco ID last night.
Arco ID (population 879) was the first city in the world to be powered by a nuclear reactor, for an hour, July 17, 1955.
This was a test by what is now the ‘Idaho National Labratory’.
Recently, I watched a YouTube video on fatal practical jokes.
July 3, 1961, three men were killed when the nuclear reactor they were working on exploded here, at the National Labratory.
They were slowly removing the control rods, so that they could be clamped in place for maintenance. For some reason, they jerked one of the rods too high, too fast. This created a spike in the reactor, that caused all of the cooling water to instantly turn to steam, and explode.
The only explanation they could come up with was that one of the men was a known practical joker.
He may have goosed the man manually lifting the rods. Causing him to stand quickly, pulling the rod 20 inches to high.
