Rocket Ride

Since the slashing of the NASA budget and the retirement of the Space Shuttle, we’ve been paying millions to Russia to basically carpool to space. Now they’re raising the price, and probably just because our dollar is worthless. What jerks! You’d think they had no gratitude about us letting them lose the cold war. Whatever. Oh, right; but back to this embarrassing cab to space issue: Look, everyone knows that aliens are constantly abducting people from remote farmland locations. Just watch the “History” Channel. I think we could easily save the millions of dollars we are paying to Russia to fly our astronauts into space if we were just a little smart about this. Let’s just see where the most UFO nuts are being abducted from, and then just send our astronauts there in full flight gear to wait to be picked up. I mean, how long could it take? And if it doesn’t work, we could just dress them up like farmers or whatever aliens find most attractive to abduct. The government must have tons of files on this stuff, since all the basic cable stations keep saying they do in their UFO programs. Isn’t it time we stopped spending so much money on covering this stuff all up and just start to take advantage of it? I mean, since we are in a financial crisis, and everyone seems to know that the aliens are here already. I mean, doesn’t it just make sense?
