Where am I at in the post apocalypse draft? When do I start getting picks? Because I want this guy. This guy right here. I will regret not being able to claim the quote, "The first I noticed while burning weed, so I burned it, aiming at its head first. It wriggled for about 10 seconds. Too long... I then fetched an old machete [+LITERALLY ANYTHING]"

In Green Bank WV, they have a "minimum electronics" rule, because it interferes with the Giant Radio Telescopes.
No Wifis. No radios, No Cellphones, nothing that 'leaks noise' the Telescopes could pick up.

They have people whose job is to go out and track down anomalous readings that pop up on the telemetry, and one time they tracked the source to a malfunctioning microwave.

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

(Whatever is said in Latin sounds profound.)

I like Celine Dion myself. Her ballads alone....they make me go all teary-eyed and shit.
