American satellite on a collision course. - Jan 29, 2008 12:47

Spy satellite' s fall from orbit will be second largest uncontrolled crash in history

Maybe it will burn in the atmosphere, maybe it will land in the ocean. Or maybe it will land on some poor focks house. Let' s take bets.

I think those are designed not to burn up in the atmosphere. "If you knew how good I am you would think I'm modest."

Well yeah there is more than one.

There is the Earth that we live on, and then there is Earth 2 which is populated wholly by Scientologists. There they are awaiting the return of their beloved founder and leader Tom Cruise.

Crysis

Military satellites are powered by nuclear fuel cells so lets hope it lands in Iran and they refuse to hand it over!

That would be great, only a couple more towelhead controlled countries left to go after we purge Iraq and Afghanistan. I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

The only stuff I' ve seen from Ridley Scott are Blade Runner, Black Hawk Down & Kingdom of Heaven, so I couldn' t say. I do know that he' s thinking about re-making The Warriors.

Sorry Loco, I usually polish up the remainder of the weekends classwork Sunday night. Multitasking between a movie & homework is easy peasy... homework and Call of Duty 4?

We might as well write out the responsible part of me.

Last night/this morning, you came in a little after Iad left right? He' s an absolute riot when he' s wasted.

I don' t think I' ve seen a lunar eclipse with my bare eyes. Lets all try to take pictures. Anyone have a camera with a large optical zoom?

Eddie_the_Hated Total Posts : 8015 Reward points : 15335 Joined: Jan 17, 2006 Location: Wayne, MI	RE: American satellite on a collision course. - Feb 21, 2008 10:32 No, but I' ve got a shitty camera with a shitty optical zoom. I just took some insanely small pictures. I' ll post em sometime tonight or tomorrow. They' re really not worth seeing though.
