Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedevs 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 Eisenhowers alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earths resources in exchange for advanced technology...

I like this computer. It boots in literally five seconds. Windows 8 is quite intuitive and easy to use. It’s a little intimidating at first because it looks like there are no buttons to push, but they’re there, and it’s fun.
One weird thing is that the hard drive sounds as if someone is having hunger pangs, or grumbling about something that is too faint to understand the words.
I love it! It comes with its own built-in gremlins grumbling.
You just can’t beat that.
I prefer 7 or Xp.
8 reminds me too much of Windows ME and Vista.
Or Microsoft Bob.
Well, mine obviously didn’t read the manual because we are nowhere near the coast and he was drop-dead gorgeous.
Thank you, Joe. Am trying. :)
What’s her name? The only one I’m on first-name terms with is Alice.
Apparently, TN snakes have a warped sense of humor because some on the non-venomous ones flatten their little heads out to look triangular. The only way I can tell is to eyeball them closely. Discretion being the better part of valor....
No!
C+++ and Pascal for everyone!
BASIC for everyone else.
Our snakes aren't especially in a hurry unless they're crossing the road. Whodathunk that snakes could learn to cross the street. Local lore has stories of very aggressive cottonmouths that actually chase people, but we haven't seen that. They're not interested in having a close relationship with us, but aren't particularly impressed with us, either. We have copperheads, too, but have only seen shed skins. (The dogs bring them to us as gifts.)
We have ‘special’ snakes here that seemingly get curious as to what these moving things are and come to investigate.
Not too bad when it’s just a little garden snake checking you out.
But an Eastern Diamondback deciding he wants to see what you’re doing is rather disheartening.
Especially when you carfully move him, and he decides to follow you.
Only had that happen once thankfully.
I thought he’d have a spacesuit at least.
Hmm.
My wife texted me one very cold morning with the message, “Windows frozen.” I texted back, “Pour some hot water on them.” She replied, “Computer completely dead now.”
It was a mercy kill.
It is in a better place now.
*groan*
You moved it? “Carefully”? What possessed you to move it? How fast were you going when you left?
Just go with Delphi. It's object-oriented Pascal. You get the benefits of C++ and Pascal rolled into one.
Whoah, did I just say "benefits of C++??!!" I must be getting a migraine.
Thank you for first lol of the day!
