This slideshow put together by the Huffington Post of nuclear bomb testing images from first 30 years of tests is pretty wild. Aside from the way that they look, which is so alien and in some cases actually really pretty, the names are great – among them there is; Operation Tumbler Snapper, Operation Plumbob, Operation Fishbowl Bluegill and my personal favorite, Operation Teapot. So if you start a successful band using any of these names please mention me somewhere in the linear notes*.
*are there still linear notes? did I just date myself big time?

Great minds…
