No beer today.

100°F, heat index 116°F.

Thankfully, I have the day off and can stay indoors.

The one I'll worry about is the one who takes a break from making 300 posts a day.

LOL!

Yommie is at 390 posts with two hours to go. He will likely pass 500 today.

I have been on forums for nearly 30 years. Never seen anyone post this much day after day.

Because you guys keep posting pre historic (pre 1975) content without giving some personal context! Hahah!

So color television in Pakistan arrived, I think, in 1976. Initially, there were only very limited color shows and Pakistan had only one television channel: Pakistan Television (PTV). And rumor was the color tv causes eye cancer!!!

But luckily (probably due to being cheapskates than safety concerns) it was harmless

Kix cereal once offered 'Atomic Bomb Ring' with radioactive material as a promotion?

Kix's rings contained radioactive polonium-210, but not enough to cause harm.

The posts were also incorrect in implying that the rings were dangerous. While polonium-210 can be deadly, according to Paul Frame, founder of the Oak Ridge Associated Universities' Museum of Radiation and Radioactivity, each individual ring just didn't contain enough of it to cause health issues. Frame also confirmed the museum has an Atomic Bomb Ring in its collection.
