    60 miles north of NYC is hardly upstate. You gotta be north of, or west of Albany to be upstate.

    So do you think the microbes that inhabit these wandering rocks have any clue as to thier fates?

    I believe he means -paying attention to it-. As in "my wife was talking to me, but as usual I wasn't paying attention to a word she said"

    No legs and disproportional hands? What would you expect from the agency that can't keep thier units straight.

    I'm suprised it doesn't have one leg longer than the other or look like one of those giant-headed costumed characters you see at the fun-park.

    It was hit by an accidental misfiring of Dr Evils laser.

    Like it matters either way. First of all, I'm probably well on my way to raising the third sheet. And discussing the encoding rate of the MP3 currently playing with that nice looking blonde ain't gonna score me many points.

    So whats the deal with The Uncoverer. Was this a high school project gone horrible awry?

    While not meaning to crush your budding ego, the proported stories are sad. Obviously your trying for a National Enquirer feel, but hitting more like a NewsMax done by humorless dead people.

    Just my opinion.

  24. Problem Solved on A Rock Moves In Space · · Score: 1

    Couldn't we just unleash those 4 NASA interns on this issue?

    In a couple of weeks a NASA spokeman could say something along the lines of "We put two an two together. There was a big asteroid heading towards earth. Now theres a big asteroid for sale on Ebay. Problem solved"

  25. Re:thank you, you stupid fucking intern on FBI Arrests 4 College Interns For Stealing Lunar Materials · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah right. NASA willl probably form a team to review the issue and come back with the suggestion of A) decreasing the standards for internship B) increasing the compensation.

    As for the FBI, gotta love those analytical skills
    To quote:

    "We put two and two together," Houston FBI spokesman Bob Doguim said Monday. "We had missing rocks in Houston, and some people trying to sell them online."

    Wow.
