Topps Olympic Cards
Imagine holding a set of Olympic athlete cards? Why aren't they more popular? Good idea for winter Olympics and world cups too!
Don't you wish you had an original 1984 Mary Lou Olympic Card? And make it like a Pokemon-Magic the gathering kind of game! Flags of nations. Medal Count. Special Key moments cards! How much would a Tonya Harding card be worth?

United Forty Eight - United 48 States of America - the Main Land Body of USA
United Forty Eight is a better term to describe the Lower 48, because the Lower 48 are north of Hawaii. Likewise the Contiguous 48 sounds weird. Rarely do people use the word contiguous, unless they are in a math class. Furthermore United conserves the word United from the United States of America. Additionally new states may be added, broken up or move away. Thus 48 is not a certain number.
Lower 48 is a biased point of view taken from Alaska. What about Hawaii? From Hawaii's point of view Lower 48 makes no sense and is rather illogical.
Also if you use the term Lower 48 does that make Alaska the Upper 1? Likewise Hawaii becomes the Lower 1?
Thus useful acronyms-nick names for Alaska would be UO or UOS meaning Upper One or Upper One State. You could even call Alaska: the UBO - Upper Big One or the ULO - Upper Larger One.
Thus Hawaii becomes the LO or LOS meaning the Lower One or Lower One State.
You could even call Hawaii the LLO - the Lower Little One or SLO - Small Lower/Little One.
Nonetheless the UOS and LOS are still apart of the USA but out side the LFE - Lower Forty-Eight.
But since most teachers and geographers are hung up on Lower Forty-Eight that makes the Mainland 48 boarder to boarder states the LFE or by my suggestion the UFA.
Unless Washington DC becomes a state, then you'd have to change the acronym to UFN or LFN, since it would now be the United Forty-Nine or Lower Forty-Nine.
But take Hawaii's consideration, UFN and UFE can still be used but U will now mean Upper instead of United.
But most Haiwaiians call the US and Alaska the Mainland so it opens up the acronym for:
MFE = Mainland Forty-Eight
MUS = Mainland United/Upper States
But if your stuck on Contiguous 48 then feel free to use the term CFE, or in the event that Washington DC becomes a state: CFN - Contiguous 49.
It's very unlikely but a state may drop out and we'd have the CFS meaning Contiguous Forty-Seven, or LFS or UFS or CFS (Lower Forty-Seven or United Forty-Seven or Contiguous Forty-Seven, respectively)
Whatever you decide to call the current united body of 48 states (which includes DC) as the CFE, LFE, or UFE, they are all a part of the USA.
But.... Lower Forty-Eight makes sense since Alaska is the tallest state after all?

Sunshine Tax - It's comming soon to govenment near you!
The congressional Ways and Means Committee has written a new law that will tax sunshine.
Basically the new satellites launched in 2013 were installed with facial and body movement recognition tracking applications that can determine who is who on a beach or ski resort. If an individual citizen spends more than two hours per week at the beach a 200 dollar tax will be deducted from your tax return or added. Every hour spent past the two hour weekly allowance will accrue another 300 dollar tax.
Only certain high value entertainment recreational places like beaches, ski resorts, skate boarding parks, and state & national parks, will have this stiff penalty. Exempt from this tax are most outdoor athletic fields. But the sunshine tax will apply to private property as well. Citizens will be allowed a 10 hour allowance per month during the winter to maintain their properties and 15 hours per month during the summer, spring, and fall months. The private property personal sunshine tax will be determined by a ratio of property value times a set fixed percentage between 3-8 percent as decided by the local government.
Sites exempt from the sunshine tax include roads, golf courses, private yachts, registered sports arenas - except when hosting musical and artistic events - in those cases the tax allowance will accrue double time, and 10 miles off the coastline.
Representative Graham of New Jersey said, "Feel free to play and run outside when it's cloudy or raining. But when there is sun, be mindful of your time." New Cell phones manufactured after 2015 will be required to have industry standard biogenic tracking software and a solar monitor application that will let users know how much sunshine they have left before sunshine taxes start to accrue.

Metabolic Cohesion - New Word
Metabolic Cohesion:
Metabolic cohesion is a state of matter when it fits the initial guidelines of being 'alive.' Life from a biological perspective is an arbitrary division, based upon a baised rubric of perception. Life is more than just a cell or a single animal.
Matter itself has natural tendency to organize itself into complex patterns.
Essentially the organizational principal of crystals and matter is a reflection of the life force. However, the objective precepts of what is living and not living has over come the full perception of what is to be alive.
Snowflakes exhibit a basic Metabolic Cohesion are key examples of the life force innate in matter and within in the atom. As snowflakes have predictable level of behavior, so do plants, animals, and people depending on their stage of life.
The modern drawing of an arbitrary line of what is life and not life is short sighted. Life like matter only transforms, and the higher levels of life beyond the five sense are also a part of this formula that objective perception is unable to tally, and unfortunately dismisses.
You can perceive the life principal in matter when looking unto the sky full of stars or happy clouds.
