Jon Stewart host of THE DAILY SHOW joked with guest Neil deGrasse Tyson (astrophysicist, contributor to "NOVA" on PBS) on January 28, 2009 whether having a black President means an asteroid is on the way. Tyson said there's one due in 2029 projected to come between Earth and it's own orbiting satellites.
Even the liberals are getting nervous that reality is going to mimic art, ie. DEEP IMPACT. If you recall the plot of the movie, the President used the coming disaster to execute martial law, round up a select few elites to be saved in underground cities, and leave the masses to face certain death.
The physical evidence of a 10th planet’s (and perhaps accompanying bodies) elliptical orbit into our solar system should prove itself one way or another within the next 1-3 years. “Niburu” or Eris or whatever - is supposed to become visible to the naked eye by this summer. We will see in the near term if it does.
Then we can see if every ancient civilization that preceded ours - and was able to leave behind a cyclic lore of catastrophe - was “full of crap”
Meanwhile we can continue to watch the planets and their moons in the outer solar system heat up
as the Sun activity cools
“What a wonderful thing it would be if we had a black president half as smart as the actor Morgan Freeman.”
My thoughts as well.
Funniest Daily Show skit EVER!
I loved that part about cheese on Italian food being delicious, but disgusting on Chinese.
Oh yeah, and that Jason Jones guy reminds me of Andy from The Office.
It'd be easy reading for all of us...
