So Long, I Must Be Going
Washington - The American space agency Nasa has lost contact with the 9-year-old Prometheus I space probe to Alpha Centauri, officials have announced. Prometheus was the first to pass through the Oort cloud and send to Earth close-up images of comets and proto-comets found there, on its way to our nearest neighboring star system. Catastrophic hardware failure is suspected, perhaps as the result of collision with space debris.

Man Bites Panda
Sometimes it takes a lot of work to uncover news stories to make fun of. Other times, God delivers them to your doorstep nicely gift-wrapped with a little tag that says, "Cheers!"
The case of Chinese building worker Zhang Xinyan is one of those fortuitous latter opportunities. Mr. Zhang, having had four pints of beer over lunch while on holiday, decided it would be a neat idea to intrude into the territory of one of nature's most adorable beasts; one who has captured the hearts of the world yet is unfortunately known for being somewhat inept with its young.

I love...
I love that you are my Valentine,
I look forward to many years.
I love that you will always be mine,
through all the laughter and tears.
I love that I've known you awhile,
with you I fear no harm.

I love how we can always have fun,
being dorks and bidding maturity adieu.
Yet never forget, my dearest one,
that most of all, I love you.
As i walk down this endless
path....on and on. I begin
to despise the living and
Envy the dead. A rain cloud
is always over my head....
pouring down rain and

soaking me, my cloths,
and my suffering soul.
As i walk with bent
shoulders, and a

Death to take me.......
i would be eternally
happy if i would
able to go to the gates
and finally be at peace.
As i fall to the ground....too
exhausted to go on.....
mentally, physically.
As i breathe my last
breath....a smile
crosses my lips for
the first time....as
Death finally takes me....
