The character Medusa (then known as Madame Medusa) appeared sometime in the 60's and was created by Jack Kirby, one of the legends of the comic book art field. She was working with a villain named The Wizard. She later became part of the Wizard's team of super villains called the Frightful Four, and battled the Fantastic Four. She had been suffering from amnesia, and was unaware of her true origin until she was contacted by her family: The Unhumans. The Unhumans were a race of mutants living on the moon. There they had a society that worshipped the Terrigen Mists. When exposed to the mists, they were granted powers. Medusa had been granted the power of Living Hair. She later married the king of the Unhumans, and served a short while as a substitute member of the Fantastic Four. Her sister, Crystal, also has long hair, but only about waist length. Medusa's hair (according to the 'official' sources) is about six feet long. But posseses incredible tensile strength and elasticity. It can be extended to nearly 40 feet, but loses strength doing so. At its normal length it is about as tough as steel cabling of equal diameter. When it is 'relaxed' it retracts to around her knees or to her ankles, or floats around her depending on the artist. Medusa's power is described as a special form of telekinesis that only affects her hair, and it is that same telekinesis that relays the sense of touch back to her when she is using her powers. She can do as many as six or seven things at once using her hair alone. She cannot fly, although she had glided before, as well as whipped her hair around like a fan to generate wind. She can climb buildings quite well with her hair, or move quickly across the ground. Medusa (and the other Unhumans) often make guest appearances in other comic books. They also had a recent short run of their own book (a six-issue mini series I beleive.) So if you want to see more, keep looking! I thought this was interesting...

Our local cable company is Comcast. I was having high-speed Internet installed at my apartment, and a Comcast guy showed up. He started spouting off technical jargon about "bouncing signals" and stuff that I knew was complete nonsense, all so he could buy time to have a smoke and talk on his phone.
I was starting to get very frustrated that he'd been at my house for a couple of hours and wasn't finished with the install. I'd specifically requested that he not install any software on my computer, because I knew it was not necessary for using the Internet. My roommate, however, had not made the same request. After some time, my roommate had to leave, and I was left to supervise the Comcast guy. I went into my roommate's bedroom to find him scratching his head as he fiddled with her Mac. He was kinda sweaty and really mad and looked up at me and asked, "What kind of computer is this??" "It's a Mac," I said. "What kind of Windows are you runnin' on this thing??" I tried telling him that it did not run Windows, and he refused to believe me. He got so frustrated that he actually ended up cussing at me and comparing me to his ex wife. He got fired. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My boyfriend and I were sitting in my dorm room, when there was a power surge, causing my computer to reboot. Unfortunately, it never got very far and popped up an error message about a missing file. Panicking, I reboot again, and the same thing happened. Foolishly, I decided to call my computer's tech support line, and after struggling with their automated system, I finally got through to someone.
I suppose this doubles as a stupid user story too, but you'd think a tech support person would have checked for that early on, instead all the other dumb things he had me do. The myth: Sometimes, during cold weather, it snows – but other times, it’s just so cold that it’s too cold even for snow.
The “truth” Anyone who’s lived in a country where it snows in winter will recognise the feeling behind this popular piece of folk meteorology: there are days when the cold is so intense, you have the sense that even the snow is too frozen to fall. “It’s been trying to snow all day,” people will say, “but it’s just too cold.” Professional meteorologists, however, say that nowhere on Earth can ever be literally too cold for snow; it can and does snow at extremely low temperatures. But it is true that snow is less common and less plentiful once ground level air temperatures get much below zero (the figure given varies), mainly because of a lack of water vapour in the cold air. Even then, significant snowfall can occur under certain circumstances, such as up a mountain, or over a source of heat or body of water. Snow is certainly not unknown, for instance, at the frozen Poles. Only at absolute zero (–459oF or –273oC), say the experts, would snow become impossible. Along with everything else.
