Enjoy, bros!

Quote
Marie Curie (1867–1934) invented the process to isolate radium after co-discovering the radioactive elements radium and polonium. She died of aplastic anemia as a result of prolonged exposure to ionizing radiation emanating from her research materials. The dangers of radiation were not well understood at the time

her belongings are still encased in lead boxes  :surprised:

In 1962 this joker was about to go on trial for armed robbery, so instead he took out a life insurance policy for his daughter, and brought sticks of dynamite onto his plane and blew it up over Iowa.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

I showed a lot of restraint last night not bringing this up along with Prison Break. Also, that bar in KCMO.
