They probably didn;t want to hear the whining from France, Germany, Russia and China.

Here's the flags...

Despoiler · 01-27-2004, 01:30 AM

There is a plate on the top side with a flag and George W. Bush's signature on it. There is also a plate in remberance of Columbia, That is mounted on the back of Spirit's high-gain antenna. So I know of at least 2. besides everyone knows Our Last two landed atleast safely and Europe's is MIA.

PAPA G · 01-27-2004, 01:46 AM

yeah, and the Japs effort blew a gasket too

Despoiler · 01-27-2004, 02:16 AM

Thats right PAPA G,
And I thought they were great engineers, while we are dumb lazy Americans?

Dennis · 01-27-2004, 02:37 AM

Thanks Allen
I still think we need a little Flag planted in Martian soil
Ya know some springloaded thing that sticks it in the dirt
so we can take a picture of it.

Despoiler · 01-27-2004, 02:49 AM

We will get around to that when AMERICANS walk on the planet, I don't think any one else will be there any time soon.

MAX7.62 · 01-27-2004, 10:21 AM

I hear ya Allen! I've always enjoyed the opportunity to ask eur-a-peons that if we're all dumb and lazy over here, hows come we gots all the money and guns?

We're dumb because we give the European's respect and consideration of their needs. They don't deserve either one. They think we're lazy because we invented just about every labor saving device on the planet. They use their peasant/service people to do these tasks. They call themselves democrocies but they still observe the old class systems from the dark ages.

Work smarter not harder...

I always say...

Some people call it lazy......I call it efficient...

If there is one thing I'd hate, it's a hairy arm pit and fuzzy legs! Talk about lazy.....and that's not to bring up the shower thing....:nod:

and there may be some pictures hidden on the rover,but in general I think God and the flag are sitting along side each other in a dumpster in D.C.

European, euroschmean - head up thier collective wazzoo's. Couldn't tell you the differance between day and night in 10 words or less, it would take them two days of meetings to deal with the question and two weeks to answer it wrongly.
