I am probably going to hell for this...
But When I saw on the news the Vancouver sports dome roof got a hole and deflated and collapsed. The first question I asked was did it make a balloon like sound as it lost air or was it more like a whoopee cushion sound.


Yep I am going to hell.

1. That's an excellent question.
But I don't think Eternal Damnation is deserved.
Now say five Lord's Prayers and five Hail Marys.

2. Yeah but they did not say or I did not hear whether someone was hurt or not...
That should have been my first question.

5. I know what you mean.
As you can tell, I have the same problem.
I reconcile it by picturing humans as ants in the universe.
See where Evil Science can lead you?

6. I want to do like a bad guy from James Bond movies.
Build a complex on an island, and getting guards and the like. But I will not make it so that one button destroys the whole damn thing.

7. I'll join you there.
I saw the flag at half-mast while I was listening to NPR. They were talking about Bush#1 getting hip replacement surgery, and I thought, "If he dies, maybe we can get the flag down all winter..."

9. From the looks of the dome,
I'm thinking it sounded like a long sigh.

21. It's done this before
They just sew the hole up and start pumping. I think this happened to that pimple in Minnesota, too.
