Oh, right! ALIENS GAVE US THE INTERNET!
Sure, but we already pretty much knew that Al Gore is an alien.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
And how is "UFO Hunters" an appropriate show for the History Channel?
Okay, History Channel, here's a tip: The word "history" is in your fucking name. "History", as we understand it or it relates to us, i.e. HUMANITY comprises several million years!!
Lack of content should NOT be a problem.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, but "history" just isn't sexy most of the time. For example, not a single sexy babe was involved in the Battle of Midway.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"We Make History" != "We Learn, Teach, Or Know Fuck-all About History"

Street addresses in Queens are freaky.
I was looking on Google Maps, and 87th St and 87th Rd in Jamaica are right next to each other!
And there's an 87th Drive, too!

I advocate a new truth in advertising law! That would force the "History Channel" to either change its motto to Jessica's suggestion or change their name to the "Wouldn't This Be AWESOME If Only It Weren't Utter Bullshit Channel".

I vote the latter. Changing your brand name to suit your crappy content is how we wound up with SyFy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You mean 87th Ave. I was going to mention that, too -- Roads are smaller streets between Avenues, as are Drives. It works.
