    Why wouldn't they launch this stuff in the other direction ... you know into the vastness of space instead of at planet earth?

    This ammonia tank was slightly larger than a can of Fosters beer so I don't think they would have noticed.

    Yeah, the skylab killed a bunny. The first and only time so far something was killed by falling man made space debris.

    Residents were warned that the fog of ammonia might actually render their windows cleaner, but advised that newspaper and "some good old elbow grease" be used for maximum effect.

    So even in space we're throwing sh*t out the window while cruising down the interstellar highway. Very nice.

    "Known as the Early Ammonia Servicer"


    Well I don't know who Ammonia is but I'm pretty sure he (or she) is pissed that they're not getting serviced anymore...

    I guess this wouldn't be as cool as when Donnie Darko's bedroom was hit with a jet engine from the future...right?

    "...the size of a Buick"


    Really? That's the comparison you chose to use?

    @92BuickLeSabre:


    I'd be SOOOOOOO happy if you were to land on me.


    Otherwise I will be taking my chances cause I am going to keep my friend company during early voting (leaving in a minute). I already voted for Genghis Khan/Razputin 08'!

    I just realized Genghis Khan/Razputin 08' could mean I'm voting for McCain/Palin 08'. It was simply a joke. No hidden references!
