I've been really busy with work and the little angel this week, and I seem to be suffering some sort of severe energy crisis, so I didn't even know until last night about this spy satellite that we are apparently shooting down.
I am no rocket scientist, but here's what I've learned:
- The satellite malfunctioned just after launch in December 2006. Hmm. That was a year ago.
- If it hits the earth, it will release toxic gas. Hmm.
- We're going to spend $60 million to shoot it down. Hmm.
- If we miss, it will probably be hitting us in a few weeks (March 6). Hmm.
- We are worried that the Chinese will get pieces of it off Ebay. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.
I think the last point is probably the real point, don't you?
