“Watcha doing?” I said, balancing a mountain of laundry with the skill of a circus performer.
“Well, I’m testing my hypothesis,” he said, only he pronounced it [...]
I’m sitting here drinking my Iron Man Juice—you remember in the second movie how he’s always guzzling chlorophyll water to counteract the growing toxicity in his body due to the palladium in his chest?
