exoskeleton
support those soft old bones with a shiny sleek exterior | |
IF it's true that osteopororsis has a genetic link then I am
headed for osteoporosis as I age. I know that I could minimize
the dangers somewhat by weight training, eating less red
meat, lowering my Thyroid suppliments to the point that I feel
mildly exhausted all the time. But instead, I shall
work on this
engineering challenge. spring supported, lightwieght
titanium,anodized in designer colors...

Does it have something to do with exoskeletons? |

There I was on the 5 yard line. 5 seconds on the clock. I was the DB defending the Unicorn. No one had ever heard of "the Unicorn" before the title game, but he was destroying all our hopes, everything we worked for. I didn't ask for this assignment, but no one else could do it. |

It was too late. The ball was already there. I reached my right hand up into the Unicorn's embrace to try and strip the ball, while at the same time, my left hand grabbed around the body plates of the Unicorns exo-armor. |

I was not strong enough to stop the Unicorn that day.
The Unicorn had won the game. He threw the ball down and in an old scratchy voice started shouting. During this shouting he reached up to pull of the Exo-armor's helmet off. I heard him shouting about - If I only knew anything I'd have stopped the Micheal Irvin tactic, but I wasn't good enough, I was a dumb young whipper snapper.
The helmet of the Unicorn finally came off and ..... |
