>> Wednesday, December 9, 2009 – Barack Obama, beer moon rocket, nobel peace prize, russia

. . .why would the Ruskies be shooting off a missile near Norway just days before ultra-snob President Buckethead's arrival for Nobel Prize ceremonies? Many of which, by the way, he has elected NOT to attend, including dinner with Norwegian King Harald.

I guess on the bright side of the situation is Russian missile technology is still 4th rate, sucks balls, and they had to detonate the spiraling projectile, but even better, Queen of Venezuela Hugo "I Don't Bathe" Chavez just bought billions of dollars worth of commie arms from Mother Russia. Including missiles. Dumbfuck.

In reality, the only thing the Russians succeeded at was the scaring the honkey out of a few million Nowergians. And those folks can't afford to be any whiter. They only have about 7 minutes of warm weather and sunlight each year.

I like stuff that flies. Airplanes. Birds. Spitballs. Boogers.

Particularly interesting though are flying objects designed to fly, navigate and eventually intercept some other flying object. You know, like a falling Inter-Continental Ballistic Nuclear Missile.

They said it couldn't be done and have been parroting that line for 20 years.

Hey, here's a novel idea. The reality behind missile intereceptor systems.

And guess what? Yeah, it works.

Hey Obama? Suck it buddy.

Cool!

Giant tinfoil spaceships are cool!

This was the photo gracing the wall at the check-in center at Stennis today. I stood there for a while waiting for my pass and after studying the photograph closely, I can understand why some people think we never made it to the moon. In the large format of this picture every detail is visible and it does have a rather surreal quality, but I don't know. . .I'm pretty sure we made it to the moon. We're Americans, we run shit™.

Someone once said, "Fortune sides with him who dares." That's what passed through my mind as I admired this photo and our ingenuity. America? Yeah, we're pretty awesome.
