They're NOT Aliens! They're NATIVES!

Its alive, but not as we know it.

No, these ones are from Serious. :-)

A shot of "tri-ox" should get it going...

Prince of Darkness ?!?! That's a new one on me. Warm beer is what I remember...

Sir Lucas, eh? Makes me wonder if he hung around with Sir Jagger...

Easter is the traditional time for resurrection stories...

Talk about flying by the sit of your pants. They send the Beagle out there, than have to wait two weeks before the have a secure line of communication to contact it. Did George W. and Donald Rumsfeld plan the mission?

Beagle is a European effort. Can't you tell by the lack of funding?

GW and Rummy backed the NASA effort which BTW is on the surface, wandering around and sending back great pictures.

The Nasa Rovers were on the drawing board for over five years. Bushwack had nothing to do with either. If he did, they would have probably ended up like the Beagle.

Five years because of Clinton budget cuts!

Gore (as Clinton's running mate) really pushed space exploration when they were running for the first term. NASA's budget got major cuts almost before they got their underwear unpacked in Washington.

See what happens when you do not have a well defined mission?

Nearly all of the toys used in the "war" were designed and developed long before Busy came into power. Also hard to call it a war when the enemy hardly fought back, either time!

Try telling that to the families of the men and women soldiers who died and were wounded in each War. What an idiot!

As a father of a Kiowa warrior helicopter pilot, I can only say you are ignorant of the actualities of war.

Do not confuse a quick victory, accomplished with an extremely motivated and well trained army as an indication there was "hardly a war".

Tell my son who has had a number of his fellow pilots shot down there was "hardly a war". I suspect that in deference to your age he would refrain from punching you in the month. I doubt that I would be so charitable towards your stupidity.

I have many friends associated with the current action in one way or another. I think your position is on target. Tell your son that almost all thank him and his associates for their efforts.
