[Nimrod2005]

Object delaying the shuttle landing, what is it? Can you tell from this?

I know I am hoping it is only one thing:

The Rapture Mobile is coming to take them all!!!

[mmonk]

1. It is

a period or a dash.

[RebelOne]

2. I'd better hop on over to RaptureReady.com and tell the wackos

to get ready because Jesus is coming to take them home.

[Nimrod2005]

ROFL...Yes, Please do, so that they can wear a clean underwear!!!

[longship]

9. Yes. Tell them that the angels all wear white coats.

and have special jackets to help their souls survive the huge G-forces of being *snatched* to heaven.

Cue the men in the white coats.
This guy is Rapture Ready:

11. Thanks for that site. I will go and have some fun tonight, LMFAO.

[whistle]

3. Boy, there is a lot of smog out in space!!!

[shain from kane]

4. It's nothing. I wiped it off my screen with a damp rag. n/t

[ProdigalJunkMail]

5. is it one of the nuts/bolts they 'dropped'

in the early part of the mission??? :-)

sP

6. How come they can point out what is following the shuttle, but

they cannot point out the shuttle OR did I miss that?

[Nimrod2005]

8. Picture was taken from the shuttle, no?

[frankly_fedup2]

15. I have no idea either. That is why I was asking. If it was taken

from the shuttle, then whomever posted "there is a lot of smog in space sure are right about that.

It's not so much this "object" following the shuttle that makes me wonder what it is (besides some lowest-bidding contractor's parts falling off, it is the way the astronaut reported it by saying, "We're not kidding, uhhhhhh . . . but there is an object following us uhhhh . . . "

I'm off to the Rapture site as well. Time to have some fun with these so-called Christians.

Hey, maybe we ought to say something about Muhammad following the shuttle because the first Iranian Woman is on board, right? Well.............. maybe not. I don't need a Fatwa placed on my head. I got enough problems anyway. I mean the so-called Christians get mad; however, they don't call for my head to be cut off because I may question their beliefs.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

14. I suppose they can't see the shuttle...

for much the same reason I can't see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed?

[frankly_fedup2]

16. Ohhhhhhhhhh. That had a little sarcasm in that answer. One

question please . . . what do you mean?

[verse18]

7. Well, it makes sense since the Rapture was rescheduled

for this Friday, September 22.

10. OH MY GOD! It is the rapture mobile then, need to do my nails to get

ready....ROFL.

[gratuitous]

12. Now that WOULD be a birthday present

So, what's it tied to this time? Rosh Hashanah? Bilbo and Frodo's shared birthday in Lord of the Rings? The day the Royals hit 100 losses for the season again?

[TechBear_Seattle]

13. Sweet Jesus in Heaven!

That looks like a giant NASA logo, just hanging there next to the moon!

[frankly_fedup2]

18. Oh that was too funny not to LOL. Some of you are so talented. (nt)

[shain from kane]

19. That's not the moon. It's meant to outline the object under study. The

moon is still a long ways from the shuttle.

And as for placement of the logo, NASA needs to advertise. It hasn't been on television enough for the past several months. (sarcasm)

On my TeeVee, NASA has its own channel. Borrrrrrrrrrrrring.

[Nimrod2005]

22. The moon is actually on the other side of the outer space right

behind earth I think...

[Blue-Jay]

17. Shit. I threw that frisbee harder than I thought.

[Xenotime]

20. Yea...that looks really scary Geez

[Holly_Hobby]

21. Hilarous, thank you, I needed that n/t
