In light of new evidence publicly released Friday showing artifacts believed to have been Amelia Earhart's, the U.S. Navy is prepping a mission to investigate the area where they were found. Next month marks the 75th anniversary of Earhart's disappearance, but the just-announced discovery of personal effects and the evidence of cooking represents the most concrete evidence yet that she did not simply crash into the ocean.

The most amazing part is that after WWII she managed to turn an escaped Hitler into not such a bad guy. That's not to mention how she helped Elvis start to eat better. She was an amazing person.

Not all people live and are educated in the US. In some other countries other people that you have never heard of are important. And star trek... really? I mean after watching star trek this is what you remember? :)
Oh, and "alien abduction"? This is really american.

Hate to break it to you, but...nobody can survive indefinitely. We all die at some time, for very little reason sometimes.

Imagine yourself living in a small, isolated place with your wife, 24/7. Now imagine the wife a strong, stuborn feminist.
Poor Fred.

Most people have heard of the first woman to solo the Atlantic
Well, I have heard a lot about that girl who soloed Dallas, but THE WHOLE ATLANTIC? What else?

Why ever not? Eating them back is the only way to ensure justice is served! (Ideally with garlic butter and lemon juice)

No, it's not. It's more like asking who were Alcock and Brown, or Blériot.
By the way, have you the slightest idea who they were?
I think Louis Blériot is Ke$ha's grandfather.

No, these were mutant coconut crabs the size of cars. They were the product of experiments by Captain Nemo. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to find refuge in the Nautilus because it was sunk when the island's volcano erupted, turning it into an atoll.

I know a retired cop who fished one too many bodies out of the water. He refuses to eat crab.
Oh, now you mention it, I think I once saw some book about a 'low crab' diet.
