Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

First California. Now they're shooting at Queens! Two days after a mysterious vapor trail appeared at sundown off the Los Angeles coast -- triggering fears of an enemy missile attack -- a stunning replay occurred in the sky over Far Rockaway. A passer-by snapped a photo of a billowing streak yesterday afternoon at around 5 p.m. Like Monday's scare on the West Coast, it looked like the exhaust from a just-launched missile. What caused the contrail visible from the Rockaways also is not known. "It looked like a rocket," said the photographer, who added that the plume appeared to the west of the Rockaways, possibly over Brooklyn or New Jersey. SCARE PLANE? A missile-like streak appears in the sky yesterday to the west of the Rockaways, much like the still-unexplained mystery Monday off California. The local resident said it didn't resemble the usual contrails left by planes from nearby Kennedy Airport. The Pentagon closed the case on Monday's incident off the California coast by announcing yesterday that it was just an optical illusion that made a plane look like a missile. The distorted angle of videotape of it taken by a TV news helicopter led to the confusion, military officials said in Washington. All other explanations have been ruled out after a 36-hour investigation, they said. "There is no evidence to suggest that this is anything else other than a condensation trail from an aircraft," said Pentagon spokesman Col. David Lapan. Although conspiracy theories and UFO claims flooded the blogosphere, several scientists said there was little doubt the trail, which appeared near Santa Catalina Island, was caused by a plane. They said the video indicated the object changed direction and flew at a constant speed, which a rocket-launched missile wouldn't do.

Ha! =D
It shows fear and proclivity to panic.
Not a good face to show real enemies.
That’s freakin’ hilarious!
People are panicking because we have Barack ‘leading’ us. The ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ guy.
The guy who has no clue what next to do unless it’s scrolling down a teleprompter or Soros is telling him on his Blackberry.
Thanks for your reply.
However, I don’t think fear and panic are ever a good response, particularly now.
