I missed the Super Moon but I heard it was beaten this weekend by zombies and monsters. Super Moon still made millions, though I've heard it's not that good. Previous Super Moon was a let down for many people, so maybe expectations were too high.

It'll probably be our luck that it'll be some hipster ******bag alien that finds Voyager, sees the record, which is so 24th century, and dismisses the entire greetings thing we worked so hard to put together.

Seriously?

And here I thought that the only Canadian with a sense of humor was John Candy (RIP).

Oh.  And Brent.

Damn.  And to happen this week when that Antares rocket exploded just after liftoff from that launch facility in Virginia.  At least in that accident there weren't any fatalities.

Humans are going to Mars.

Putting an asteroid in orbit around the moon?  Crazy.
