Yeah, I know. Anybody with half of a brain and a history class should know this one.
 
"There was supposed to be an Earth-shatterin 'KABOOM'." And lo, there was, or rather, were, two. Nasty things can happen when particles get bored and decide to split.
 
Yep. I know. I'm actually a dirty, dirty liar and don't know at all. Haha, suckers.


Haha, it seems no one noticed this. I find that amusing, but if you did, you know I was being sarcastic. LOSE-AHHH!

Ahhh...But the "Marvin the Martian" quote fits perfectly.

I suppose at this point, I'll reveal the answer.

Little Boy was the codename of the first Atomic bomb used in aggression. On August 6, 1945 America sent the Enola Gay, a B-29 Bomber, on a round trip flight. Her target was Hiroshima, Japan.

Fatman was the codename of the Bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan three days later. Bockscar was the plane that delivered the bomb to it's primary target of Kokura, Japan. But due to cloud cover it changed course to it's secondary target of Nagasaki.

Just your little piece of history for this week folks.

I'm just curious to how you made a reference to Fatman and Little Boy at chilifest.
 
I made a batch of exquistely HOT! chili.

I handed people a pamphlet before I would let them eat any of it.

It went like this:
"Are you man enough?"

It's a simple question and really easy enough to answer.

Most everybody has tried hot chili before, including myself. I've had some of the hottest stuff out there. This is something new.

That stuff you remember that was hot, it was a rubber ducky floating in your bath tub. My chili is an Aircraft Carrier.

The hottest stuff you've tasted is a paper airplane you threw in grade school; my chili is the Concorde.

The hottest Buffalo wings you've ever tasted are an ice cube in a margarita; my chili is the Iceberg that sank the Titanic.

Those Jalapeno Poppers you've tasted are the dog house out back; my chili is the Taj Mahal.

That hot stuff you remember...A fire cracker; my chili...Fatman and Little Boy.

That previous chili... A matchbox car you had when you were young; my chili....Dale Earnhardt Jr. would be afraid to drive it.

It's hot like you've never tasted before.
I will warn you now, you will feel the pain.

So... "Are you man enough?" Most likely not.

That's the most intimidating chili pamphlet in the history of the world.

No, those are the Insanity Peppers of Quetzalthalnaga (excuse the spelling).

Take that, Space Coyote!

And it lived up to everything I stated. I've never seen so many men cry in one place.

Yes i know who/what they were.


I think the salient quote here is (paraphrasing)

"if i knew then what i know now, i'd have been a dentist"
