Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev’s off-air comments that Russian Presidents are given a secret file about extraterrestrials living among us created much media interest. Most news reports claimed that Medvedev was simply joking. His apparent reference to the Men In Black movie as a source of information on a super secret agency that monitors extraterrestrials on Earth was commonly cited as key evidence that he was in fact joking. The reasoning is that no political leader would refer reporters to a comedy to clarify national policy. It has now emerged that Medvedev was not referring to the Men in Black comedy after all, but to a recent Russian television documentary titled “Men in Black” that reveals many details about an extensive cover up of extraterrestrial life visiting Earth.
However, a more accurate translation of what Medvedev actually said about the Men in Black phenomenon was: “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.” So Medvedev was referring to a Russian “documentary film” titled Men in Black, not the Hollywood blockbuster by the same name...
Russian Men In Black (MIB) documentary, a number of prominent UFO cases in Russia and the USA are discussed. The Roswell UFO crash is covered, along with a number of extraterrestrial abduction cases, and UFOs disabling nuclear weapons facilities. The documentary examines testimony that extraterrestrial bases have been established on Earth, and that some are in restricted US military areas with the full knowledge of the Pentagon. The documentary even goes on to seriously discuss President Eisenhower’s alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earth’s resources in exchange for advanced technology...

We lived in Chula Vista from 1970 to 1975. Never such fruit ...
My mother and her friend bought an apartment building in a part of town where nobody spoke English - my brother and I and the other kids had to talk to the tenants - and it had orange, lemon, and pomegranate trees on the lot.
If you’d known about Prop 13 ...
Do you EVER sleep?
My catz agree it’s Caturday.
Oh! That’s a great one, NnBob!
I was just needling you.
You put an extra letter in “needing.” :p
We have wheelie bins and pop-a-wheelie trucks. They manage to grip the bin with a roboclaw that slips between the wheel and the can when shaking it out.
When the put the can back down and release the claw, it pops a wheel off.
(Alcohol may be involved, Popov vodka, I bet)...
Can you make banana pudding?
Of course! And you’re only a couple of states over!
Looks like the start to my day, for sure. I’m very cold.
*tagline*
Nice tagline! It’s 70 here.
Pinewood Derby results:
Pat was the overall winner (cheering crowd noise!), and also got a citation for “Most Futuristic Vehicle.”
James was in contention for the finals, though ultimately didn’t make it, but his car was clocked at the fastest speed of the day in one of his races.
Vlad’s car won one race and had mixed results in the others, so he didn’t get any awards, but did get lots of snacks.
Sally’s car beat those of the twin 4-year-old Turner boys in the non-Scout race, and it looked nice, too (gold).
Kathleen was the cutest baby.
Frank, with perfect “Socrates is a cat” logic, explained why what looks like a small garden-cultivator is really an alien space ship: “It’s green. Alien space ships are green.”
29 degrees, sunny, wind, NNW @ 8 = 15F
DANG! *turning blue here* I don’t have anything in my closet that’s warm enough to withstand this cold wind. My heavy stuff is in storage. *sigh*
Hooray for the Pinewood Racers!!
Is it spring yet?
(Hi 'Face!)
Santana the weather-dragon is predicting a mild January and February followed by a warm March. But that could be in Australia ... a race-memory sort of thing.
If you had a Husky for huddling, that would be warm.
H-Hour -3 for our departure for the party this evening. It’s going to take some time to get me looking fully Stuning.
Hey! *hug* Did you hibernate?
We have the coldest, ugliest six weeks of the year coming up, and I want to bury my head in the sand until the first of March, when the trees begin to green out.
I’d hit it! LOL!
Huskies are good for huddling. And they always smell like snow.
