Nothing like a little nuclear waste shoved up the ass to cure what ails you.

I was thinking that a nice "prize" for winners might be a certificate that could be e-mailed to them.

Perhaps someone in this community has some graphic skills they'd like to apply - you could crop and paste some of the most fav ads seen here and put it along the border.

Or perhaps there could be a contest for best certificate design to be voted on.

Just a thought and congrats to Tanwen!

That would be ideal! Not to mention tasty and useful.

Good thinking. Combine the two. A WINNER banner that the regular winners could put on their journals and a box of stuff for the uber-winner. Sounds good! And it'll keep costs down.

Now have a contest to see who can design the best Winner banner!

"They are inserted one per rectum..."

I suppose excessive radiation exposure might indeed result in a person having more than one rectum. Must make trips to the loo quite interesting!

I for one welcome our new radium overloads...

Ever wonder which cure we have now will be a quack in the distant future? I'm not talking the obvious ones, such as uppers as appetite suppressants (*cough*AYDS*cough*).

In the film "Nothing Sacred," Carole Lombard's character, Hazel Flagg, is believed to be dying of radium poisoning (though it turns out she isn't). But Hazel worked at a watch factory, and in those days they used radium for the glow-in-the-dark numbers. I doubt the writers would have employed a radium suppository as an explanation for her "condition."
