We might. We have a U-haul trailor for Dirk's mom, so I don't think it should be a problem.

Btw if you want to do drugs I, personally, would not give a fuck or think of you differently... unless you were like a junkie or some shit, and then I'd just feel sorry for you.

Dirk is a fucktard.


If you simply touched plutonium with a cig, wouldnt it blow people's faces off? I know that its something like a cup of plutonium that could level downtown houston...but as far as "ignition and lift off" i'm just guessing

No because it isn't inflammable (or 'flammable' as you yank bastards would say). Also, most explosives will not detonate simply from a naked flame or a heat source, which is why blasting caps or other types of detonators are needed to supply the necessary shock wave which will cause detonation (i.e. with C-4). That means you can use C-4 as fuel for a campfire and be totally safe.

But enough about explosives... Plutonium isn't one, it is a radioactive metal. In order to use it to create an explosion, what you must do is put a certain amount of it into one mass, and this amount must be greater than or equal to the 'critical mass'. Basically what this means is that when you have a small amount of plutonium (i.e. subcritical: less than the critical mass, which for plutonium-238 and plutonium-239 is roughly 10 kilograms), it gives off radiation, but the radiation can escape faster than it is being produced. A mass above that 10Kg mark however is supercritical, meaning that there is so much radiation (neutrons) being given off within the mass that it can't escape fast enough... neutrons hitting other neutrons cause additional neutrons to be radiated at a self-sustaining rate, and very quickly the fission chain reaction escalates exponentially, resulting in a nuclear explosion of sorts.

Just to give a brief illustration of how this is situation comes about in a plutonium bomb... subcritical sized pieces of plutonium can be arranged, separated, in a sphere, with conventional shaped explosives surrounding the nuclear fuel. To detonate the plutonium, the conventional explosives are detonated at precisely the same moment, forcing the separate subcritical pieces of plutonium inwards to form one supercritical mass, and bob's your uncle.

I solved the 1st prt of his subliminal message.

I noticed

Ilikeitintheass

Ill leave the rest to figure out for yourselves.


Anyway my bootcamp date got extended till may21st !


Here's my idea

Lets all add up the costs for alcohol+condo/beach house n split it X ways.

Yea ???? N can som1 brng cdjs ??


N lets all set a date sometime @ the ending of nxt month so we can all request the day off from our jobs n stuff.

Yea ?

...thus encouraging more alcohol consumption.

What's wrong wit that? Did I forgtet 2 read smthng ?


I'm against drugs tho what if we get a noise complaints ?? N cops show... I mean were gonna b miles away from our homes sooo.... Yea...

They can't go inside unless they see underaged people drinking. Which they won't see.

So I'm guessing you raped your Chemistry exams in college eh?
