  • BOOM!

    From Lee Lofaso@2:203/2 to ALL on Thursday, April 20, 2023 16:08:32
    Hello Everybody,

    We do things right in America when it comes to launching starships.

    The giant SpaceX monolith, over 400 feet tall, starship got off the
    launch pad this morning, flew way up in the sky, and then blew up in
    mid-air when it did a loop the loop, failing to separate the stages,
    going BOOM! for all on the ground to see. The crowd cheered at the
    sight, as the view was perfect - blue skies with no clouds.

    Yes.
    Engineers in the USA really do know how to get things off the ground.
    What goes up, must come down. Not necessarily in one piece.

    For Life,
    Lee

    Hello Kurt,

    "Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly."

    Just you wait and see what is said when it has real people on board.

    For Life,

    That's one way to celebrate Adolf's birthday, I guess. With a bang.

    Why would you even say that? You believe that birthday is something to "celebrate"?

    I guess you're more of an asshole than previously thought. FOAD.

    Just because you are so morbidly obsessed with me, it doesn't mean that you *HAVE* to make snide comments to everything I write.

    Dan,

    I guess you're more of an asshole than previously thought. FOAD.

    Which beggs the question if an asshole is a celestial body which can expand without limit or is there an end somewhere. Because, if per your saying it can expand without limit, eventually filling the complete universe, making us all part of becoming one giant asshole and ... in that case ... we will all be a part of one giant Bjorn Felten ....

    Wawww ... 8-)

    I'm certainly not "obsessed" with you. You must be thinking of how you
    are morbidly obsessed with finding fault with the USA, and since you're
    going senile you get the two things crossed up.

    mean that you *HAVE* to make snide comments to everything I
    write.

    Agreed, and I don't. But when you make a post about celebrating Adolf Hitler's birthday, I will.

    Is that why Elon Musk chose that date to launch the maiden voyage
    of his starship? Sure made a beautiful fireworks display over Texas.
