We're taking it a bit easy this week and talking about the magical superweapon that will or already has destroyed the world and taken over your mind.

And while it certainly isn't the reason Jesse Ventura can't sleep at night, it does have a fairly shady history and has certainly been involved in top-secret military projects.
