I was under the impression that the entire Yellowstone park and then some is really a super volcano and if it erupts we all die, if not from the blast, from the ash.

This is still not good.

I doubt you guys remember this despite how often I've mentioned it, but I like the SR-71 so much that I created a larger variant that could handle a few passengers, weapons, plus recon capability and I named it the SR-72 about half a year ago.

Well now Lockheed Martian has started work on a real life SR-72 project to fill a considerable gap in reconnaissance and the biggest difference from my fanmade aircraft is the Mach 6 capability.

Supposedly they'll do this with an engine that functions like a normal jet engine at low speeds and will transition itself into scramjet for high speeds (the SR-71 functioned more like a low speed ramjet at the upper ranges of its operational limits).

It would appear the shipment of fresh bamboo from Loudoun County is late as the Giant Panda Mother, whose cub will be named soon, is pacing her enclosure and banging on the doors. I have never seen a panda be that active before.

So the aforementioned cub is supposed to be named today and 4 are dead after a train derailed in New York on a curve. Came to rest much to close to the water for comfort.

Nelson Mandela died earlier.

I'm curious as to just how important this person to have gotten Judge Judy interupted and for the President to be issuing a speech right now.

by Lief Katano 5th December 2013, 6:16 pm

Very. Judge Judy interrupting and speech-making important.

I should've specified I was looking for a rank, which I just saw while looking for train information on Yahoo! Answers. He was an icon of South Africa and apparently extremely influential in driving the racist regime out of office.

There was a school shooting at a Colorado high school earlier today. Two students were shot before the gunman killed himself. More info here: http://www.cnn.com/2013/12/13/us/colorado-school-shooting/

*sigh*

Cue the anti-gun legislation that won't actually help reduce the number of shootings, or violent crime as a whole for that matter.

Fun Fact: Colorado has some of the strictest gun laws as a result of the Columbine Shooting.

by **Caprizant** 13th December 2013, 7:07 pm

It's worth noting that from what I've heard, the people who were shot (besides the shooter himself) survived, one with only minor injuries.

by **Truthseeker4449** 13th December 2013, 7:51 pm

Well I guess that's somewhat reassuring...
