Russian Mock Mars Mission
sdriver writes "CNN reports that Russia is attempting a 500-day mock Mars mission. The article goes on to say, "six volunteers will depend on a preset limit of supplies, including about 5 tons of food and oxygen and 3 tons of water." Also, "Experiment participation is not solely reserved for Russian volunteers, institute officials added."

"(Sorry, I had to.)"
Why? Are you on a mission to make sure the joke is never funny again?
"Derp de derp."
"where did that joke come from anyway?"
It comes froms from a joke that Yakov Smirnoff (sp?) made. I can't quote the joke. Something like "In Soviet Russia, the party holds YOU!" or something like that.
Part of me wonders if the resurgence of this joke came from an episode of Family Guy where Peter bought a car with a GPS featuring Yakov mode.
"Derp de derp."
Theres also a Simpsons episode where bart and grandpa go to Branson,Missiouri and see a play called Thats Familiar with "performers that you though were dead, like bonnie franklin and adrian zmed..." and at the end Yakov comes out and says "In soviet union review watches you"
