And Now for Today's GOOD NEWS!

It's that time of the century folks! That's right, it's time to overhaul our nuclear arsenal, or as W used to call it "new-kew-lar." (Gosh, we miss that guy! Wonder how the weeding's going on the Texas ranch? W never met a problem that deserved interrupting his eight-year vacation for.)

Estimates for the updates begin at $352 billion for the overhaul, in order to update America's 5,113 nukes, enough to blow up several worlds numerous times (a sure fire solution to global warming and all our economic woes).

According to The Washington Post, "Failing to act before the end of the next year, ..., is likely to mean that there won't be enough time to design and build the new systems that would be required if the old arsenal is no longer safe or reliable."

Now for the $64K question:  "What is a safe and reliable nuclear arsenal?" (All reasonable answers will be considered and prizes awarded on the second Tuesday of the following week. Read the small print.)
