The Geiger Counter in the Garbage Can

Anyone who has kids has collected it. You know, the cheap toys that somehow always end up in your house even though you make the promise with your wife/husband/significant parakeet that it will never happen. No, you know your kids are better than collecting useless trinkets, unlike the common masses.

Karl Rove has more patience than I

So while enjoying a quiet Sunday afternoon, a group of protesters invaded Karl Rove’s property.
If it was me, this would have been the conversation:
“Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Protestor. This is your official notice to leave my property at once. If you do not leave immediately, I will only assume that you are hear to hurt my family and my property. Be sure of this, my brand new shotgun and I will make sure that this does not occur. You have 20 seconds to leave the grounds. Please stay off the grass, and have a nice day.”
