After exposure to radiation, it is important to consider that you may have mutated to gigantic dimensions: watch your head.

A one-inch thick piece of plywood should be sufficient protection against radiation. Always carry one.

Don't allow radiation sickness to make you forget to synchronize your clocks. Check your local radio stations, laptop, or as a last resort, fire up that iMac in your closet.

Don't touch faucets--they may be contaminated with biological or radioactive agents. Use telekinesis to levitate the faucet and your armless hand. Then wash.

When trapped in a confined space, you can pass time by making shadow puppets.

If you're not familiar with shadow puppets, consider moving your flashlight around wildly and pretending you're at a disco.
