    Always enraptured and perpetually in awe.
    GRIDKEEPER’s videos are perhaps the single most impressive collection of original ufo footage showing such a diverse menagerie of seldom-seen ephemerites; multidimensional alien behemoths cruising on high, barely visible just beyond the grasp of Earths pull.
    Interwoven within layers of pitch black space, juxtaposed within the innocuous glimmers of a star-spattered night sky, they watch from afar, perceptible only by their enormity as nomadic chameleons.

    Its sad to me that all the best grapes turn into wine and not delicious organic sweet grape juice…the price of high quality wine has caused high quality grape juice to take a back seat..or no seat at all>>

    The aspect ratio is wrong.

    feels like jumping off a bridge

    Those are the “real” men..:) Well said m8.

  10. jetsam50000 says:

    Ya, and I’ve seen guys stand by there mates a few times.

  11. 9sectionwhip says:

    I see your point..but you can’t really know a person’s true colors until the chips are down and you need them. Guys will do and say anything to get in someone’s undies;)
    I’m not saying that women don’t ever gloss over “potential flaws” in a mate but I think most of the time the guy (or girl) changes once they get pregnant. I’ve seen it happen a few times:(

  12. jetsam50000 says:

    Although your statement is true, who’s fault is it to choose a guy that wouldn’t stand by her side?

  13. 9sectionwhip says:

    Not all single mothers are “loose”. Don’t forget the weakling males that knock ‘em up and then are no where to be found/punks that run as soon as their “love” is pregnant.

  14. jetsam50000 says:

    Uhh, duh. We just ask super man to help.

  15. rcmodder says:

    LOL no no I like your ideas lol.
    The problem I’m finding with them is that you think it can happen in a year, the sad fact is it’s impossible.
    If it wasn’t for time I’d be right there with u and agree.
    Yeah in the future all this will happen for sure. How far in the future?
    That I really don’t know. However, I read about 4 months ago about a company that’s trying to establish a base on the moon within a certain time period.
    Our children will travel in space man, we’ll be old by then, truth.

    I’ll be sure to give you a call!

  17. jetsam50000 says:

    Mabye you just arn’t the visionary I am when it come to space. When I’m done conquering the martians and rebuilding civilzation cause of the enevitable nuclear holocaust, you call me, and you can get a plot on the moon.

  18. rcmodder says:

    Robots, people, it doesn’t matter.
    With people it would be too risky right now, with robots it would be to technical to be reasonable right now.
    It’s just too complex.
    U need a way to be able to keep briging down to mined materials.
    Also I mentioned 2 wks as in on earth orbit not actually going to the moon.
    We still haven’t found a way to guard astronauts against solar radiation.
    Low earth orbits keeps us protected because of the earth’s magnetic field.

  19. jetsam50000 says:

    First off we use robots to mine the asteroids, and ya shuttle launchs are expensive, but its doeeesn’t take two weeks to get to the moon.

    Second, the whole single mother thing has to do with that the govenment gives a check to loose moms that don’t produce anything. Which indirectly causes the gang problem in the US. But lets just steer away from that for now.

  20. rcmodder says:

    Yeah that’s good and all but again, that’s not very realistic.
    Space mining is a great idea, but first we need to be able to safely and easily get up there.
    It’s extremelly expensive just sending a shuttle crew for a 2 week mission on earth orbit let alone trying to capture an asteroid and having a some type of company of 80-100 guys mine it.

    Alot of money for schools doesn’t reach the kids, recycling….I’ll give u that but single mothers?!
    That’s wrong, it’s hard being a single mom dude.

  21. jetsam50000 says:

    Guess how much profit we’ed get from asteroid mining, and space manufactering? A lot, more than enough to to run NASA and pay off the national dept. And besides half of the federal budget is wasted on usless spending like wealth-fare for single mothers, recycling unecomical materials, and our school system (gust looc att mi speling!)

    And although tech in the 60s was lacking, when you do it 6 times and comeback with 3 living astronauts, I think more than luck had to do with it.

  22. rcmodder says:

    Our economy is in a weak state right now, and with all the problems in the housing, and market I don’t think alot can be spared for this kind of attempt.
    You also gotta remember that alot of information from the Apollo missions has been lost with the very men involved.
    THe tech in the 60′s was very crude and to top off all of this every mission was a game of luck and chance.
    I mean that’s great thinking don’t get me wrong but with the way things are, I just can’t see this happen.

  23. jetsam50000 says:

    JFK gave us a ten year dead line to go to the moon. We did it with technology from the 60s. If we can build a space shuttle, I think we can be back on the moon and more in less than a year.

  24. rcmodder says:

    I don’t think it’s quite that easy.
    Even if they did have the budget u propose, they would still have to plan, build, check and re-check EVERYTHING.
    Astronauts would have to train for this.
    This couldn’t be done in a year, besides, should a catastrophe occur that would stop any manned flights to space for quite a while.

    have you done these 3 steps before?
