    Looks like a direct hit on Sweden. Is that an artistic representation of when some deity decides "enough of Greta"?

    Actually the cover story already is they are going to crash The I.S.S. into The Pacific cause suddenly it's at the end of it's life.

    So basically they are going to hope that by running The I.S.S. into it, it will break up.

    And in my youth (10 yrs old in 1945) we fed "Tankage" along with whey and corn to our hogs. It was ground up unused hog parts.Were cooked, pressed into 30" by 3" thick round circular wafers in a steam contraption at the plant. Dried and removed, broken up, and sacked to bring to farm.

    INCIDENTALLY:
    Any of you guys ever go to the former Babcock & Wilcox Boiler Plant in West point. MS. It is now the Navistar military vehicle rebuild/re arm plant. South of and around a corner from Royal Trucking Company. That big building is in the middle of what was our cattle pasture. The covered company picnic table/BBQ pit/ Pavilion;now in the center of the middle of the portion east of the big building to the street, was our hog lot. We fed about a hundred hogs to sell to Bryan Bros. Packing Co. Between that canopy area, and the street to the East, was a big, white, two story house with a barn between this house and the B and W. plant. Lived there till 1945. Dad rented the place from one of the Bryan brothers. We were the "Prestage Farms " to Bryan long before Bryan Brothers became Safa Lee Foods. Trivia I know.

    It could be.

    Is a tanker considered a "hi-profile" vehicle?

    I don't think so, but the OHTPK might have other ideas......

    Maybe we'll get lucky and it'll wash some liberals away in the communist state.

    Cool we can get live footage and commentary from inside the ISS as it crashes then!

    I can work with that, for longer term planning, what are the trying to break up, the asteroid? Pacific plate? San Andreas Fault? Marin County?

    The OM thinks telling California could create a panic. So she recommends they all stay locked down, smoke some of this, and call uber eats. faucci will take care of everything, and notify tham when it is safe.
