PLOTONIUM
222 Pl 666.666
Name: Plotonium
Atomic Number: 222
Atomic Mass: 666.666
Half-life: Plotonium becomes highly unstable during times of writers strikes. Its fission products include Survivorium 142 the reality TV element. The radiation from Survivorium 142 can lead to watching excesses reality TV.
Plotonium was discovered by FarPoint Labs in the year 2008.
Properties: Plotonium is highly volatile in the presence of logic will combust if over analyzed. Plotonium will crystallize in the presence of large sums of money and occasionally will condense in the presence of alcohol and other mind-altering substances.
History: Plotonium though not isolated until early 2008, as been used in its raw unpurified form by Hollywood to increase the believability of it’s scripts.

ROFLMAO!!!!!
At first I fell for it by the headline then I started reading it aloud to a coworker then I realized I was had as my voice slowed to a crawl followed by a “damn I was just had!!” GOOD WORK guys!!
I love it! I loved the bit during the show, but this is a great follow-up.

One of the funniest bits I’ve heard in a long time. You had me laughing out loud while sitting in the Denver airport this morning.
I don’t think the people over at the L.I.C.C. will be happy about this. http://www.geocities.com/thelicc. Plotonium is the primary metal of the hull for the Spidership, and has been since 2001.
So here’s my theory. Every time the writer’s come up with a cheesy explanation for something, it’s because of Plotonium. However all the aboslutely brilliant things they do that don’t require Plotonium, that’s all due to Plotinum (Like Platinum, but with an o… get it? )

Great Work Sam! =-)
