who needs F-35?

Lockheed Martin placed an ad on CNN to demonstrate/brandish their F-35

I first thought that they were trying to sell F-35 to consumers, as that's the place where I usually see a shaky jumpy bumpy grumpy Ford F-150.

Who needs these billion dollar machines that are still fueled by chemicals, when we already have far superior stuff swooping up there in the sky??

We need BLACK TRIANGLES!! Seriously.

What force is behind such fissure?

When I gaze into the night sky, I see the pulses of the Universe

On LibriVox

Creator of LibriVox should realize it is money and fame that people utterly care about. The people here, should refer to the participators in the free audiobook recording.

Certainly, LibriVox does not offer the first. And this awesome service lacks one essential feature to meet the second human desire: listener rating. However it would be disastrous to enable rating, as so many volunteer's recordings will be mercilessly commented, ridiculed, smashed. Which by their own quality they quite often deserve it. I never mean you can't find jewel on LibriVox. I enjoy Mark F. Smith's reading of The Mysterious Island so much, that I recommend it whenever I got a chance.
