It would be a tragedy if a piece landed on Soylent Green Girl.

Can this satellite possibly be saved? I would hate to see it crash to earth for no good reason. But if it does hit earth, could it possibly fall into on of the areas where OWS is camping out?

There’s one or two co-workers that could use a satellite drop-in.

So Bluto Blutarsky was kinda right when he said...
“What? Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!”
