DISCOVERY makes Final Landing

It was a good idea , a good program and a good space craft. This is what we think when we hear the name "Discovery". I think it is important to point out that the key word here is "was". The Discovery touched down for its final time just recently, the landing went off without a hitch (Yay!)
Good for you NASA,Spcae shuttle crew and just about everybody out there in anyway associated with the space program,.. or ANY space program for that matter. It is people like them who constantly drag our sometimes stubborn world forward into the future. A future we all hope will be better and brighter. View the final landing below. Barring any spaceborne mind control virus type lifeforms brought back by accident.. It's all good.
And by this point I think we all know to be a little leary of space originated virii and stuff.. right? I mean c'mon You all saw the movies and we all know Movies are based on real life ..

Proof of Life Beyond Earth !! Fossils .. Maybe ?

I recently happened across this news story as I was perusing various news areas.If it wasn't for the large 4 letter NASA contained in it that caught my attention,it might easily have been missed. But there it was nestled quaintly between "Thai girl declared Hairiest child ever" by Guiness and "Charlie Sheen and Ex-Porn goddess make-up".Clearly the people of this planet and continent have their priorities straight. As I have said before the Alien threat is not to be overlooked. Oh wait .. sorry I actually just realized I had been scolding others about the reality of a Machine rebellion. Although obviously neither is desirable, they are clearly not the same. But I digress, please follow the link to get to the story and avoid anymore of my meandering statements of questionable quality.
That link right there

The Thumbellion

Thumb Wars
what to say .. oh man what to say. I'll start with absolutely brilliant. I'm well aware that this particular effort was first introduced to Netizens a good while back, .. I'm posting it here again because I like it. Yes I know .. that doesn't sound like a very good reason to anybody. Well except myself of course. I'm well aware of this fact,and I think if you just follow along and view the clip one more time you'll have to agree it is pretty funny. Same old take on the Star Wars spoof yeah, but With THUMBS Man! I mean .. THUMBS  lol
ok it's not that cool. But it is pretty inventive and does leave the door open for imaginative props and witty dialogue. Blah blah blah .. etc etc ...  watch the video. See you all back at Resistance HQ, and May the Thumb with you!
