Here’s a story about the Mars rover finding another meteorite on the surface of Mars. As interesting as the article might be about our amazement that we’ve ’stumbled’ across 2 of these, I am more interested in the not talked about story here. Aren’t you the least bit curious how it is we have a freaking remote controlled car on the surface of freaking Mars, that has kept it’s charge, manages to recharge for over 5 freaking years without having to be plugged into a freaking wall outlet ? Aren’t you curious ? Just a little ? My freaking phone, pda, mp3 player, camera konks out after less that 24 freaking HOURS and this thing is still freaking driving around Mars for 5 freaking years. Something is freaking wrong, and we are being freaked with in a most freaking spooky way.

We have an urgent swine flu health alert for everyone. Even though our health care workers are required to get the H1N1 vaccine, doesn’t mean they won’t get the swine flu. Our favorite nurse, KP seems to have gotten infected despite the vaccine. So be careful out there…. On the positive side, you will be able to identify anyone with the swine flu rather quickly.
