Random Question for you Monday afternoon…
Who was really good at playing the video game ASTEROIDS
back in the day?
Do you also happen to be un-beatable at PAINTBALL by any chance?
If so… Send a resume over to NASA… they might have a job for you..
There’s a tiny chance that an asteroid could be headed for Earth next year.
And if it is, NASA has a solution.
Remember how in the movie “Armageddon” they sent a bunch of oil
drillers, and Bruce Willis into space to keep an asteroid from hitting Earth?
Well in real life, the situation is even stranger….
THIS asteroid is going to get pretty close to Earth on February 16th next year.
And instead of sending oil drillers to take care of it, NASA’s best strategy
for defense would be . . . to send up our finest HOUSE PAINTERS…or not.
They say covering the asteroid with COATS OF PAINT would change its
ability to reflect sunlight. That would change its temperature, which
would alter its spin . . . and divert its path away from Earth.
Fortunately, Operation Paint the Asteroid doesn’t look like it’s going to
have to happen. Most of the Astronauts never really took the time to
brush up on their post secondary Art degrees….
Why not just send up a paintball team…with the mother of all paintballs
in a bazooka..Or just take people out of the equation and launch a giant
paintball rocket… .. just make sure that it clears orbit and that
nothing goes wrong…. like making a giant ink blotch on a diplomatically
sensitive country… stuff like that…
Unless they’ve grossly miscalculated, the asteroid will miss Earth by about
17,000 miles. That sounds like a lot, but in space terms, it’s a NEAR MISS.
They’re Baaaack!!!!

Ever dream of joining the MILE-HIGH CLUB without the risk of
getting caught, fined, or thrown on a no-fly list? Then head on down
to the US of A… where a company out of Cincinnati called Flamingo Air
has plowed ahead as the only company in the U.S. to offer private flights
SPECIFICALLY for the purpose of getting it on.
For $425 you get an hour-long flight specifically for sex.
And sorry, they don’t offer companions, you have to bring your own
flight attendant. Bonus awkward-points if you’re booking the flight solo.
You can learn more at their website: FlamingoAir.net.
doesn’t say whether the flight goes anywhere., t’s not like a travel option,
more like a mile high pleasure cruise.. so to speak.
And it’s only for and hour…. and it still costs 425 bucks….
But many will still agree that it’s better than the….. um…. treatment…..
you get at the airport.
Hope they have a good cleaning crew…
