Brains are weird

Glancing at my default homepage this morning (my iWon), I saw this USA Today headline.

However, my 6:45 AM brain did not see IAEA in the headline. It saw IKEA.

As you can imagine, that caused a double-take. I did, for a moment, revel in the possibility of being able to buy a low-priced pine-paneled hydrogen bomb that can be assembled with a single allen-wrench as long as you can handle the inscrutable instructions :)

In the future, you will be able to buy nuclear weapons from IKEA and the matching attractive coat hangers. While you're there, stop off at the Screaming Thermonuclear Death Ikea cafe for some meatballs.

I have to admit the price would be tempting but primary colored bombs really stand out. I think I'm going to have to go elsewhere to find a nice beige one...
