I’m afraid I can’t do that, Dave: Voyager 2, an unmanned spacecraft launched in 1977, is now 8.6 billion miles from Earth, but it’s sending data in a format that NASA can’t decode.
NASA’s blaming an attempt by the Borg Collective to upgrade Voyager 2 from Vista to Windows 7.
You’re doing it wrong: An AARP study says that more Americans 45 and older are open to sex outside of marriage. In 1999, 41 percent said nonmarital sex was wrong, a figure that dropped to 22 percent in the new survey.
A similar survey found that 93 percent of Americans under the age of 30 believed that sex, inside or outside of marriage, was wrong for anyone over 45.
Yabba-dabba-doo: Genetic research shows that most Europeans and Asians get between 1 percent and 4 percent of their genes from Neanderthals who lived 30,000 to 50,000 years ago, suggesting that interbreeding occurred between Homo sapiens and their thicker-browed cousins.
Coincidentally, archeologists recently discovered a 30,000-year-old study by PARHS (the Pleistocene Association of Retired Homo Sapiens), that showed modern man had become more open to sex outside of species.
