Natter 60: Gone In 60 Seconds
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Here's a very cool game, where you have to guess people's accents (as the read Kipling!). I did terribly. [link]
From my above link (originally it was posted here: THE MOON: A Propaganda Hoax)
The Moon does not exist!
This is no lie. Until recently, I, too, believed in the traditional, establishment view of the moon. But any thinking person, untainted by the biases imposed on us by the controlled media, will have no choice but to reach the conclusion I did once faced with the facts described in this account.
You can see it. But think about it – without the help of so-called "experts", how do you really know what you’re looking at? It could be a hologram, projected from various government installations throughout the world. It could be a large, crudely painted balloon, held in place by helium and propelled by tiny sails and rudders (which is why it moves across the sky so slowly). Or, most likely, it could have been different things at different times and different places, depending on the technology available to the conspirators and the culture and beliefs of the population being deceived.
The hoax could easily have been imposed on a gullible world at many points in human history. Perhaps it began as a collective hallucination or a religious myth, or perhaps an especially bright star that came to be exaggerated over time. However the moon story started, early proponents of the hoax were swift to recognize how it could be exploited for their benefit, and shrewdly devised a scheme to use it to their advantage.
They began to spread rumors, falsify scientific observations, and invent new gods to represent this fictional celestial body. They ingeniously concocted the idea of "cycles of the moon", and as their resources increased, were able to create the illusion that this object in the sky actually went through such changes. To make their hoax more plausible to early, superstitious societies, they arranged for these cycles to coincide with the months of the year.
Awesome!

I think the spongemonkies would beg to differ.
I totally thought rhythmic gymnastics had been taken away as an olympic sport!! Wow. They kept that, and are getting rid of softball?? Dang.
Where would all the crazy be stored if it were not for the Internet?

Ok, the IOC would be one storage area.

I could also be 7'2". But I'm not.

I think they are big on getting rid of sports where one team is too dominant. Does the US always win? I think women's hockey is in jeopardy because US and Canada are so dominant over the rest of the teams.
