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...

Did you give him an A for effort?

Considering he was a three foot baby and I have a long stick while hiking and he was crawling up to my leg and over my boot is what posssessed me to move it.
I’d stopped to take in the view and Mr. Snake decided he was going to check out me.
Felt something go over my boot.
After calmly assessing the situation I convinced Mr. Snake that the end of my stick was a good thing to crawl over.
He was rather remarkably undisturbed by the whole thing.
Never buzzed his tail once.
He seemed, instead, to be enjoying the activity.
AFTER I moved him I fled the area as fast as my booted feet could carry me.
One groan, one lol. Mah work here is done!!!
“Whoah, did I just say “benefits of C++??!!” I must be getting a migraine.”
We have coffee...
Feh, a rattler bite will only make you a little sick. Not that I’m looking forward to my first, but if it weren’t rattling, I’d have been glad for the new friend.
Snake: “I can eat that. *THUNK* Well, crap! NoI can’t. now I’m stuck! Uh, a little help here?”
Snake: Whatever you do, DON’T PEDAL!!!!!
Rider: What’s that whap-whap-whap sound I’m hearing?
My wife said I was insane.
She’d already taken off running when she saw the snake.
The five foot or larger ones scare me.
If that’s a rear tire it would go like this.
Rider: Was that a snake flying through the air? Since when do they fly?
Snake: Jerk!!
LOL!
I hate when that happens!
My mother taught us how to catch snakes. I have a respect for them, but not fear. Of course, that would be different if I lived where there were dangerous snakes, like in India.
I remember in AF Summer Camp (Eglin AFB, Fl.) some Rangers showed us some of the indigenous snakes. They brought out a box of pine snakes and put clumps of the serpents into the laps of the people on the end and said, “pass them down.” I was one chair in from the end. The guy who was on the end shrank back, so I picked the snakes up and passed them out. He finally took one from me and liked it so much he didn’t want to put it back.
For most people, you just need to get to know ‘em. ‘Em the snakes, that is, not ‘em the people.
Unless, of course, your immune system is all skiwampus. Or the rattler is very young. Or you is very old.
I grew up in diamonback country, and there is no way I would want to test a snake bite's ability to damage, maim, disfigure or kill.
I respect Eastern Diamondbacks.
They can be very cranky.
I was lucky with the three footer.
That was on the Appalachian Trail of all places too.
Early summer.
Pine snakes?
Coolbeans!
Win8 may have some good stuff but why on earth (or above the earth - maybe under the earth though) would I want something that belongs on a touch screen device installed on my desktop? Just my thoughts.. I'm grabbing a couple of OEM's of Win7 before they disappear.
Oh, and I have a box running a Linux distro (Mint13) right now - figure I'll try out a bunch of the distros to see what's up with the Penguin..
I’d upgrade the system back to a real PC user OS like Windows Se7en.
You don't have to get that drastic. I have a couple of OEM's of WinXP you can have cheap. If you want to upgrade to a real user OS, I still have a copy of MS-DOS 6, but you'll need a floppy to install it... ;-)
Also have the bigthickbook that goes with it...
Apparently, Microsoft was trying to create a single user experience for their phone, their game console, and computers running their OS. In other words, they wanted the:
One OS to rule them all
One OS to find them
One OS to bring them all
And in the darkness, bind them.
Explains a lot, don't it?
Mine doesn’t have a touch screen.
It has a Win7 skin, but I wanted to try the 8 and shut it off. I’m not going back.
Speaking of the Microsoft phone, can anyone think of a crazier idea? Do you really want your phone to bluescreen in the middle of an important call?
When you remember that Microsoft is in Redmond, Washington (on the LEFT coast) it all falls into place... ;-)
