Every major nation should build a metior shelter halh a mile down...

[Lancer]

...and stocked with enough food for a thousand humans to survive a thousand years. Then, keep a thousand people down there permanantly just in case. If a metior hits a few of these shelters might be wiped but some would survive.

We wouldn't need water, there would be plenty. They would need a reactor, maybe a nuke sub type.

[Japher]

right... I'll get right on that

[Lancer]

You'll need a shovel.

[Lancer]

...and a sandwich. Maybe roast beef with mayo and lettuce, salt & pepper. On a roll with swiss cheese.

All this thread accomplished was to make me hungry.

...only to see its occupants eaten by the underworldly monsters dwelling there.

Grab a bite before the metior hits. Get some eggs over medium, a couple of sweet Italian sausages BBQed, hash browns and a large fresh squeezed OJ. Don't forget the coffee, columbian supremo fresh dripped.

That's right. We also need space platforms capable of keeping a thousand people for a thousand years. Solar energy powered, containing hydorponic gardens and recycled water. They could grow wheat and raise chickens and pigs. Then they could have that chicken dish with the ham rolled up inside and baked in solar ovens with a touch of cayenne pepper sprinkled over. Served with red wine so they'll need vines for grapes. Every space faring country should build one, and bring their own recipes. This way we can avoid the underground monsters should they exist. Or, alternately, we could just eat the monsters. Bring tarter sauce for that.

I think I'll die from overeating before I die from a meteor strike. Anyway, we better get started on this project quick as the sun is due to turn into a red giant in about a billion years and if we aren't engulfed by it, we'll be a lot closer. If Winston and a shovel is all we got, it'll take a while.

[Japher]

don't forget the sandwhich... we can do it!

[Shrapnel12]

Whew! It's hot out.

only to be eaten by traveling space monsters.

It already exists - it's Cheney's "undisclosed location."

Unfortunately, only pre-screened Americans can get in.

See that! Good work Japher. It's a core philosophy of mine that most anything can be accomplished by a man with a shovel and a sandwich. Another core philosophy is that what can't be done by that core philosophy can be accomplished by a vat of jello and three hot chicks, but jast nuf it.

[Shrapnel12]

I'll bring the vat of jello! You bring six chicks (three for each of us).
