the first payload to the moon in the new launcher will be the entire Congress. One way.
the temperature was in the millions of degrees? What's with this 195C sissy stuff?
Okay, so a three dimensional pizza would be a calzone, but what would a four-dimensional pizza look like?
It would look like the one on my counter the next morning.
Which is exactly why we need Extended Warranty Reform. Hopefully, Dear Leader will make this his next target.
I played Milton Bradley's "Operation" as a kid and now I'm a surgeon??? BFD.
Somehow I know *we'll* lose!
POTS is pretty reliable; but secure? Really?
