René Descartes walks into a bar. Bartender says, "What'll it be, whiskey?" Descartes says, "I think not."

And he disappears.

Okay, I had to google that one to get it!  :razz: So, I read on and found this one....

I was in a restaurant, apparently owned by a fan of the space program, and I found this picture on the wall in the men's restroom.  It's of a launch, possibly the space shuttle, but I'm not 100% certain about that.   What I'm really not certain about are the dates that bookend the bottom of the picture.  It says, "December 30, 1985 - July 31, 2004."  I can't for the life of me figure out what those dates represent.   Anyone else have a clue?



I have no idea. I've put some time into this and I cannot find the relevance of the dates at all within NASA. . . Not Challenger, not Columbia, not Skylab, not the international space station. . .

What about that mission to mars or the date that deep space explorer left the universe???

That's for trying PH.  I've done the same thing.  I have no idea what those dates represent.  I may have to end up calling up the place and see if a manager on duty knows. 

After all, you know I have a history of calling restaurants to answer questions we've had here at the Zone.  Remember when I called the Commander Restaurant in Munster to ask about the sign they had outside?  ;D

We had a Hawk land on a coworkers brand new Jeep last week, carrying a squirrel it had snatched. And it proceeded to eat it right there at morning break time. Cell phones were full of pictures of it, as was social network sites.

My coworker was seriously pissed because it's talons left some pretty good scratches on the rooftop.  :icon_twisted:

I'll probably do that later. 

I wonder if The Commander is still there.  I'd say it probably is.

I would have chased its ass off for that very reason.

Yeah. One of the bigger burley guys at work tried to do just that and the bird puffed up and came at him talons out. . .  :big grin:

They left it alone after that.  :biggrin:
