Houston, We've Got a Poop Problem

Houston, we have a problem! There's a turd floating in space.

In 1969, during the Apollo 10 moon mission something went awry. In this declassified log of the fourth manned mission to the Moon, astronauts Thomas P. Stafford, John W. Young, and Eugene A. Cernan had to deal with some, um, toilet malfunctions that resulted in UFO (Unidentified Fecal Object) floating in zero G in the spaceship.

It was humanity's first close encounter of the turd kind. (On a side note: we now learn that astronauts curse. A lot.)

Makes perfect sense that kids become murderers after playing Mortal Kombat, just like how kids were trained in cultural relations when they played cowboys and Indians and girls learned to become strippers by undressing Barbie. Seriously, the only thing Mortal Kombat did was screw up kids English skills by spelling the word with a K.

I was a kid when the MK controversy was going on, so naturally, I didn't care. (I didn't care about the game itself, either) A restaurant I frequent has a MK game and now as an adult and parent, I have to laugh about it. I look at the Tom & Jerry style fighting and what passes for blood in that game (patches of red blobby goo that float away into the air? Really?)and wonder what parents were ever worried about. The big deal at the time was the 'realism' of the violence and honestly, it couldn't be more cartoony.

We've been around long enough to know that we win some, we lose some in terms of covering stuff. There's simply no way to be the first in covering things that happen on the Web. ')
