Mars is the closest it's been in 60,000 years. My inner astronomer says "Way cool!" and my inner astrologer says "Oh fuck."

Hence all the Mars space projects this year. One from the ESA, two from NASA, I think there's a Japanese probe out there too.

I hope there isn't intelligent life there, they'll think we're invading. ;o)

And what do you think caused the loss of the Mars probes earlier... Don't succumb to the government disinformation! ;)

And is it any wonder what all the fuck has been going on in the past year?? Oy. Fuck you, Bush.
