November Stundie Nominations

Amazing. You're talking about a government that has officially lied to the public countless times and, as far as I know, never officially acknowledged any wrong doing.

You're talking about an elected government that has officially dismantled America into 21st century feudalism.

Hey, I was wondering why we could start jousting again!

playdor has done better than that.

In response to Patrick1000/fattydash/<and many more sock-puppets>'s marvel of crisp thinking, in which he asserts in the same thread that Apollo astronauts were told not to talk about stars, and then claims as evidence Al Worden's postflight discussion of seeing too many stars to readily pick out some specific ones, I offer this rebuttal by playdor:

The sky is black in space because there is little or no scattering of light. You can't see stars with your own eyes in space because they are too far away. The angular diameter of the biggest star in the sky, Betelgeuse, is 50 milli- arc secondes and the angular resolution of an human eye in 60 arc secondes. Therefore, the angular diameter of the largest star in the sky is about 1000 smaller than the resolution of a human eye! Then You can't see star when you are in space. It is comparable to trying to look at a 1 dollar coin (2 centimer diameter) located 200 km away from you - you can't simply resolve it!

Never mind P1k/fd's contradictory claims that the Apollo astronauts didn't see enough stars and saw too many stars. They didn't see any stars, and neither do Shuttle or Station crews. You can't see stars in space!
 
This wouldn't be so funny, except the writer describes himself as Jeffrey G. Strahl "retired engineer/math instructor". I just want to know what kind of crane they use to lift these beams:

Steel beams weigh thousands of tons, will not float in the air, unlike flour particles, which are extremely light, which can be moved every which way by even lightly blowing air on them . It would take a huge force to move them sideways at all, let alone eject them at high speeds, a force far bigger than their weight, which acts vertically.

OK, this one is just for goofs and giggles since it's not really something someone has said, but what they did.

It seems that the football coaches on the sidelines at Ol' Miss have figured out the perfect way to signal the play to the players in the huddle.

They hold up a large sign with the initials of the player the quarterback is to give the ball to.

Lemme see if I understand this:

You owe a tax debt and don't want to pay;
You do the FMOTL magic ritual;
Da gubbmint seizes your stuff to pay your debt;
You posit that its not the FMOTL woo thats flawed, it's the government that refuses to recognize that the woo is correct.

Someone, somewhere will no doubt chalk this up as another FMOTL "success" - after all the freeman did everything right, the government just cheated -again :D

bit like this one
http://www.news-journalonline.com/n...tona-targeted-by-man-in-foreclosure-case.html

Judge Rouse found Sanchez committed contempt of court by filing the liens. Rouse gave him 179 days in jail -- significantly less than the one-year maximum allowed.

No doubt with a nod and a wink from the judge to acknowledge the freemans "inonitness" *
* is that a new word I just invented?

I love that he puts "court order" in inverted commas.

I imagine something like this being said;
"So you think the judicial arm of legistrative powers can just order me to pay the taxes I owe? With some kind of order? From the courts? What is this?"

Im a liberal socialist, but FMOTL makes me long for Pay-On-Demand system for civil services. You dont want to pay taxes? Just make sure you never need any civil,fedral or council service, as they all demand payment when you do...

We do that, you know by following the published rules of court, the published laws passed by the elected officials, not relying on "secret words and phrases", etc.

No there isnt, The camera angles cannot change where the fake images were in the relation to the towers. The fake west plane is west and does not change because of camera angle...sorry.

This one example demonstrates with great clarity that we are expected to believe attitude checks/platform alignments could be carried out by the very same system that is to be checked and corrected for.
