MysticWicks endorsement: ""Oooh, I'm a Discordian! I can do whatever I want! Which means I can just SAY I'm a pagan but I never bother doing rituals or studying any kind of sacred texts or developing a relationship with deity, etc! I can go around and not be Christian, but I won't quite be anything else either because I just can't commit and I can't be ARSED to commit!"

Mystery Missile, but it's probably just a weather balloon in some swamp gas.

QuoteLos Angeles, California (CNN) -- The Pentagon is unable to explain images of what appears to be a high-altitude rocket or missile launched off the coast of southern California at sunset Monday, officials said.
The Pentagon and the North American Aerospace Defense Command were investigating video shot by a news helicopter operated by CNN affiliate KCBS/KCAL showing an ascending orange-colored contrail high into the atmosphere, officials said. A contrail is the visible vapor trail behind airplanes or rockets traveling at high altitudes.




:tinfoilhat:

We appear to be doomed by our DNA to repeat the same destructive behaviors our forebears have repeated for millenia. If anything our problem solving skills have actually diminished with the advent of technology & our ubiquitous modern conveniences. & yet despite our predisposition towards fear-driven hostility; towards what we anachronistically term primitive behavior another instinct is just as firmly encoded in our make-up. We are capable as our ancestors were of incredible breathtaking acts of kindness. Every hour of every day a man risks his life at a moments notice to save another. Forget for a moment the belligerent benevolent billionaires who grant the unfortunate a crumb of costfree cake. I speak of pure acts of selflessness. A Mother who rushes into the street to save a child from a speeding vehicle. A person who runs into a burning building to reach a family trapped on the upper story. Such actions,such moments,such unconscious selfless decisions,define what it is to be human

I keep seeing information about this. No one seems to dispute that it was a missile, but no one can say where it came from.

No way a missle test to show Asia, that we care
Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

Whoever runs contrailscience.com must be staining their pants over the mild bump in web-traffic this story is likely generating.

It was Carnival trying to hide the evidence that their cruises are dead in the water.

Saw that this morning.  I like how the media, when it reported it, just kinda said, "oh, it's a matter of PERSPECTIVE--that's why it looks so odd!" and totally glossed over the fact the government's claiming it doesn't know what the hell just got launched...SIDEWAYS.

Luckily, my paranoia's banked quite unnaturally by living in a triple-military-town.  :lulz:  It's really hard to not SUSPECT shinanigans known/uknown with the navy bases and jarines not that far from me...nor the nuclear power plant along the coast down the way, either...
