The Thor Missle
Just found out that my wife's recently deceased grandfather received a patent for helping to develop the guidance system for the Thor Missle

Kinda cool-

None of these Article mention it was the Thor the Soviet Union was countering when they started to put Missiles in Cuba (i.e. the Cuban Missile Crisis). We agree to withdraw the Thors from Turkey and England as part of the Cuban Missile Crisis resolution.

3. Wow, thats what my wife calls my male reproductive organ!
Though its really more of a Titan Missle, or a Long Range ICBM, but she goes for Thor Missle. Maybe its because I wear a horned helmet, carry a huge hammer and fight for justice on earth and is asgard.

5. Well your grandpa screwed up
It used to work great, now it keeps misfiring. I thought there was some kind of lifetime warranty on these things.
