In about three hours the NASA probe-thigie will hit that comet... hopefully.
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our wings are not tired
On NPR they described it as hitting a 9 mile long pickle shaped dirty iceball with a washing machine. The NASA guys crack me up.

NASA is all like, "Watch us spank that comet without breakig a sweat. Now give us more money for giant rockets like these.

It's a very small one - barely shows up on radar. We should be getting a bigger set of thunderstorms in a couple of hours.

Thrive to spite them
There's a huge nasty looking bug in the living room. It flies.
It's managed to get itself inside the top of the blinds.
I have no RAID or other insect killer. I don't know what it is. But I'm going to have to flush it out or something and then kill it.
