NASA SPENDS $349 ON TEST FACILITY; IMMEDIATELY SHUTS IT DOWN UPON COMPLETION



NASA started construction in Texas on a special test tower in 2007.  The facility is designed to test the effects of space vacuum on rocket engines.  In 2010, the space program for which the facility was designed was cancelled, but construction continued anyway, regardless of cost overruns.  As soon as construction was completed, the facility was closed. 

COMMENTS:
NASA blew $349 billion in wasted spending in 2014 alone.  How many millions of people in this country will go to bed hungry tonight? 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What do you think of the move to establish better U.S. Government relations with Cuba?  (Yale ~ Greeley, CO)
A. To be honest with you, I’d be much happier if our government would work to establish better relations with US, as citizens.  The next thing we know, Obama will be having a beer with Putin in the Rose Garden.  No, scratch that; Putin’s probably busy loading missiles onto a Russian freighter for shipping to Havana.   

Q. What do you think happened to all of the water on Mars?  (Jim ~ Klamath Falls, OR)
A. Global warming.  What NASA is not telling us is that they’ve found a statue of Al Gore up there. 

Q. Sony is cancelling release of “The Interview,” previously set for December, due to the hacking of their computers.  So, North Korea wins?  (Brent ~ Lansing, MI)
A. Don’t be so critical.  Obama is working hard to establish better relations with North Korea.
