Go with either Cosmic or Gamma Rays- best chances for super-powers there.

Note: Gamma Rays may cause slight gigantism and/or personality disorders.
Cosmic Rays may lead to shouting embarassing catchphrases such as "Flame On!" or "It's Clobberin' Time!"


And, of course, Good Luck: we're all counting on you.

Perhaps with the gamma ray option, I could use this Gamma-Ray Quasar as a source for the rays.

Update: I finished my course of radiation and the first bit of chemo yesterday...after some 6 weeks.

Part of the side of my head is brown...which is something of a tan due to the radiation source being aimed at it for 5 days a week for 6 weeks. There are just a bunch of little things are a off, which, taken one at a time isn't so bad...but then over time they all start to wear on you.

Now I have a month off chemo and then back on for one week a month for six months.

In the meantime, we're off to Hawaii for a week.

A note of interest, on Monday, 27 March 2006, NPR aired this piece about a man who had a brain tumor.

Glad you're doing allright, Jay!
I'm just back from Gainsville where I started chemo as well (though I dont have cancer, thankfully!).
What are you on? I take Methotrexate (sp?) and it kicks the crap out of me for a few hours after I take it- like getting hit in the nads, in that " gotta lie down and not move at all" sorta way.

Wish I could afford a trip to Hawaii for a week!
YOu should do the whole "Magnum P.I." thing while you're there and take a helicopter ride over the islands....that would be cool.

Careful in the sun Jay, I hear that chemo and too much sun don't mix.

I was on a chemo medication called Temodar.

That'd be nice. Although how you would fit one in a suitcase is beyond me. Unless you break her legs first...
