It's strange . . . we're worried about dying from Global Warming . . . getting hit by an asteroid . . . an Ebola epidemic . . . but nobody seems concerned that maybe the Earth could bust apart at its seems.
I, for one, would welcome the end of the Earth in some weird way that we never thought about.
Those are the fish that can move 1/4 mile across dry land to find new places to live.
Well, that sounds like their weak point. Maybe we need to have Springfield Snakefish Days when it's dry and go around clubbing them?
The summary says that they hang out in shallow, grassy waters. Some geek fisher here must have some techie ideas involving radar and shotguns that should help the problem.
because the "arrow of time" would point two opposite ways in the "meta-universe".
This is a seriously silly question, but has any serious physicist conjectured that the "arrow of time" could have more than two directions?
I mean, like going sideways or something? And what would be the bizarre implications of that?
On a per capita basis, American citizens are four times as likely to be incarcerated as Chinese citizens.
Chinese workers are more productive in manufacturing things, but American criminals are four times more productive in committing crimes! We're #1! USA! USA!
Now, if we can just find a way to monetize this advantage, and turn crime into a highly successful export article, we're all set!
Or maybe Chinese criminals are smarter and better at not getting caught? And our criminals are dumber and not very adept at avoiding justice?
How do we know that the project has been dropped silently? All we know is that they have dumped the barge.
Maybe the project has "rigged for silent running" . . . and is now located on a submarine!
Anybody can afford a barge . . . but a submarine . . . ? Pricelessly Googlely!
Watch out, Captain Nemo! Four fathoms fold thy Google lies . . . of their code, are Google Glasses made . . . those are apps that were their eyes . . . and I alone am left to tell the tale... call me Ishmael.

Yea and it's not the middle ages either
Those Islamic folks seems to think it's the Middle Ages . . . or they would like to bring the people under their control back to the Middle Ages.
Ah, the Middle East: God's Monkey House
live like those people and flop over dead before your time
Being that alcoholism and suicide are leading causes of death among Inuits . . . those diets must make you feel miserable, too.

. . . the trouble is . . . the training camp is probably conveniently located right next to a hospital or a school.
It's Dark Matter.
If anything's missing, the answer always is Dark Matter.
Can't find your car keys . . . ? Dark Matter.
Short on your mortgage this month . . . ? Tell the bank, "Dark Matter."
The Earth is not as hot as we'd like it to be . . . ? Dark Matter.
Yes, we were definitely confused. Back in the 80's, we were trying to do the fusion "cold".
Instead, this guy suggests now that we do the fusion "quick" instead.
I see an Ig Nobel coming for "quick" fusion.
. . . customer last.
Burma Shave.
It's a greasy, nasty-tasting meat with a mushy texture.
McDonald's has made a fortune with that. A McSnakehead might appeal to kids and metal heads, if they included a toy with it.

Wipe it before you leave the house.
Words to live by.
. . . or shake it three times. But if you shake it more than three times, you're playing with it.

Problem is, nobody cares to do that study because there is no agenda driving it, and no funding, and no press would care.
It would be a hoot and a half if it turned out the Big Coal was funding the Fukushima studies:
"See! Nukes bad and evil! Coal healthy and wholesome!"
New Washington Post headlines . . .
"Hurricanes to slam the entire US coasts . . . and the stuff in between!" [click here to buy a hurricane survival kit]
"Martians land in Washington and attack the White House!" [click here to buy guns and ammo]
"Ebola epidemic hits US!" [click here to buy skin lightening cream, because only white folks will get the vaccine]
You need to be careful with what you do with "things" . . . I have a patent titled:
"A Method and Process for Doing Stuff with Things"
. . . I wacky-parsed the title as: "IBM Creates Custom-Made Brain-Like Chimp.
. . . so just imagine where that thought train derailed me . . .
. . . or maybe it's "Carlos".
The canal project will bring in more bucks than surfing tourism, so that will pretty much settle it.

. . . will you be speaking live, from the spacecraft?
That would surely impress the finicky crowd here. And make us all jealous!
The UK had two Russian spies in their government: Donald Maclean and Guy Burgess . . . and Kim Philby.
Ok, their three Russian spies were: Donald Maclean, Guy Burgess and Kim Philby . . . and Anthony Blunt.
Start again. Among their Russian spies were: Donald Maclean, Guy Burges, Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt and John Cairncross . . . and . . .
Oh, bugger.
The unmasking took years to complete . . . um . . . if it was completed . . .
However there is a big difference here . . . those spies did it for Russia. Snowden did for America.

. . . I'm thinking of a fake finger tip, some ketchup and a hilariously "pull my finger" joke . . . with a twist.
"Keep the tip."
Yeah, but if you smoke the pot, you won't worry about the water any more . . . except for your bong.
"brown holes"
. . . and their wave function would be the "brown note" . . . ?
I don't see why they can't do this with the Magic 8-Ball.
"The Truth" . . . is the first casualty in war.
