The Latest Must-Have Fashion Accessory

Truly we live in an age of miracles and wonders, friends. Why, each and everyone of you will soon be able to live out your innermost Superman fantasies.

Except for Drew M. He usually fantasizes about being Aquaman's "living Octopus chair". That's one of the reasons i choose to "Make Mine Marvel" instead of D.C.

The humble T-shirt may soon be strong enough to stop a speeding bullet.
Scientists in the US have developed a flexible shirt made of the same material used in tank armour, by combining carbon in the shirt with the third-hardest material on Earth, boron.

As a smart military and fashion forward blogger, I felt obliged to bring this story to your attention. Why?

Because this new t-shirt has an additional property that will likely come in handy now that our benevolent President has generously given the world a "your first punch is free" card.

Prof Li said the T-shirts could also block "almost all" ultraviolet rays, and possibly life-threatening neutrons emitted from decaying radioactive material.

It is my understanding that President Obama has ordered all further development of this t-shirt stopped, lest it be interpreted as a "hostile, cotton-poly blend, provocation" by the Iranians.

So get them while you can, is what I'm suggesting.
