It went down in the Indian Ocean about an hour ago. So my Toyota is safe. Now I can relax.

It'll happen again. China's so nonchalant when it comes to people's safety. . .

GEICO is going to start selling a Chinese Space Junk rider for all their policies.

Pretty much any risk can be insured, even when it's a certainty, like death, Einstein, Tao or Let-go-of-my-Logos.

What else is an ocean for? :(

My cynicism hardly knows any bounds, and sad to say, the following story was within those bounds. But it did make me sad, so maybe that's progress of a sort.

For those of you who click on the link, it will be hard to finish the story; the temptation to bury your head in the sand will be close to irresistible. It's one of the things we humans do best.

Yes, plenty of sand needed these days.

My whole life we've been in urgent mode re environmental issues. Supposedly. I heard an enthusiastic young woman the other day say "we're the generation that's most concerned about the environment".

Uh. Yeah. So were we.

It's embarrassing that we dropped the ball so badly.

And tragic.

Thank goodness Russia, China and other foreign entities would never do anything like these two examples!!!

Exactly. China's view of the environment can be summed up by the rocket, and Russia's goes without saying.

Even Japan, very possibly, as they start to release the radioactive water from the 2011 disaster.

Shipping via oceans is very efficient & environmental friendly!

Imagine intelligent aliens surveying the universe and looking for signs of advanced life when what should appear but a planet that looks like a teenaged boy's bedroom.

Dave, too bad your one-in-a-trillion hope didn't work out. Have you considered betting on Powerball? Better odds!

You stand better odds of a famous supermodel cold calling you for a date or the church being true.

You're not going to believe this, but last night, as I was sitting down to watch TV and eat some leftover perogies I'd just heated up, the phone rang.

When I answered, the sexiest woman's voice I'd EVER heard, said, "Hey, I heard you're an exmo..."

Seriously? You should know better than to start a story by implying you lack credibility--however true it may be!

Ah, Gladys, how quaint! Proof that you've been a good mormon girl!

You see, alluding as I was to the Penthouse Forum, it was a mainstay of the supposed letters from readers that they published under that heading, that many of them would begin in that fashion, "you're not going to believe this!" and then go on to tell a tall tale of erotic adventure.

"SUPPOSED letters...!!" You telling me they weren't real letters from guys who were scoring hot chicks under the most incredible circumstances?

Well, I guess that might work--as long as there isn't an author's photo in the byline.
