Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

For that matter, I DO believe in UFOs -- that there are unexplained flying objects (or at least sky phenomenon) that are out there. I just don't believe they're aliens.
Yeah, I've seen a UFO, but my assumption is it was some kind of helicopter with an unfamiliar light pattern. As opposed to Tars Tarkas stopping by for a visit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That's just what the alien governments want you to think.

All those fit young men sweating under the south Pacific sun. In and, if it was hot enough, maybe a little bit out of uniform. Mmmmmmm.
World War II as a vehicle for teh hot gay sex. Isn't there a whole genre of movies on this? And if not, why not?
About the only thing I miss about cable is Dirty Jobs and MythBusters.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Discovery's Surprise: Did Bat Hitch a Ride to Space?
I would tend to think if the bat didn't just let go, it would have lost its grip when the shuttle went supersonic, but....
The bat, seen clinging to the external fuel tank of the Space Shuttle Discovery before its launch on Sunday, apparently clung for dear life to the side of the tank as the spaceship lifted off.
And what a ride.
The shuttle accelerates to an orbital velocity of 17,500 milers per hour, which is 25 times faster than the speed of sound, in just over eight minutes. That's zero to 100 mph in 10 seconds.
Did it make it into space? No one knows yet. But photos of Discovery as it cleared the launch tower showed a tiny speck on the side of the tank. When those photos were blown up, it became apparent that the speck was a bat.
Flight director Paul Dye said no one has seen the bat since.
"I heard that it was clinging to the tank at liftoff, but I don't think anyone has seen it since," he said.
Launch controllers spotted the bat after it had clawed onto the foam of the external tank as Discovery stood at Cape Canaveral's Launch Pad 39A.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Nah, that was Mallomars. Whoopie Pies and Moon Pies are available year-round.

History channel. I still remember a Shakespeare "documentary" by them. They admitted Shakespeare wrote his own plays, but argued that he was also part of a Catholic conspiracy against the Tudors.

Poor little bat got disintegrated, methinks.
I just gave myself a heart attack here at work, thinking I'd screwed something up that I didn't. Like I needed that today.
