It didn't take long. A woman has filed suit over the aforementioned adult content in the video game 'Grand Theft Auto'. Claims it wasn't suitable for her fourteen year old. Hmmm. It was originally rated 'M' which is for seventeen and older according to the rating system. Why is she giving it to a fourteen year old in the first place? Wasn't suitable? Innapropriate? Look again at the box. GRAND THEFT AUTO. The object is to steal cars and hit on prostitutes fercrysakes. She's buying this for an impressionable teen? I wonder if she has internet access, where adult content is always one or two clicks away and you don't even need to know any secret codes to unlock it. Which brings us back to the real reason for the lawsuit - she's jumping on an opportunity to perhaps make some easy money by acting horrified. Now that is obscene.

The space shuttle is grounded again. There's a push to abolish the program completely. Uhm, knock knock? Anybody home? If our space future needs to take another course entirely, and we aren't sure if the Russians can commit to it either; let's try and get these folks down in one piece and empty the space station before we make that decision. OK?

Though now I'm thinking of job prospects for displaced or converted terrorists. Wanna' strap yourself onto a bomb? That's what turns you on? How about a job in our space program? Do something useful with your life. You just have to accept the fact that spaceships blow up from time to time.
