Fly me to the moon

Scientists recently discovered water on the moon, which was an important discovery towards the finding of extraterrestrial life. Since all living things on earth need water to survive, apparently scientists believe this is true of all living things everywhere. I don't believe this is true, and if there is life outside of Earth, as I believe there is, I'm sure they are managing just fine without H2O. Anyways, the possible existence of life on other planets or galaxies will always spark debate, but I refuse to be so egocentric to believe we are the only living things in the entire universe.

On a lighter note, I just finished watching an episode of Masters of Horror, which revolved around the idea that George Washington was a cannibal and ate young children. Since then a group of crazy people know as the Washingtonians continued this practice as they wore powdered wigs and dressed in colonial clothing.

The show was actually quite entertaining and reminded me of Tales from the Crypt - yes it had one of those strange endings - At the end of the episode it was revealed to the country that George Washington was a cannibal and so they took his portrait of the one dollar bill and added George W. Bush's portrait...

Speaking of killers, does anyone watch Dexter? That is by far the best show on TV right now.

Today I read that after 55 years the US Postal Service will discontinue its' service of responding to children's letters to Santa from North Pole, Alaska. Apparently a postal worker in Maryland recognized one of the volunteers as a registered sex offender and so, one rotten apple spoils the bunch. I am not sure why the USPS doesn't just check their volunteers instead of discontinuing this program. Speaking of Santa I went to Disneyland this past Sunday and I saw this man with a long white beard sitting inside the Village Haus (a restaurant in Fantasyland) with two other men. All I could think about was that this was Santa Claus with two elves (these men were average height). Well I can dream can't I.
