Am I the only one who has zero faith that they are actually going to hit this comet?

Are my 10 seconds up yet?

The only thing they are going to do is knock the damn thing off course enough to head toward Earth. Then we'll have to call on Bruce Willis and Ben Afbutt to save us.

A buddy of mine is an engineer at the space center in Houston. I've asked him what the chances are of this working. I'm waiting for him to call me back and I'll let you know what he says.

OK, here's the word from my buddy in Houston.

"I'd say the chances are about 1:3 that it will not work.........but I really don't know anything about it....sounds pretty tough though"

So basically, it sounds like you could all qualify to be engineers at NASA

Seriously, this isn't his specialty - he's a mechanical engineer and he tests different materials for the exteriors. He got a kick out of the question though.

I am counting on the best 4th of July ever....if this actually happens....I want to see it..this might be my cover shot for a magazine that will make me famous....

hey....it could happen!!!!!!!!!

GOD

But Bruce dies at the end

I imagine they'll screw something up. On that one Mars mission they made mistakes in converting metric to english or something along those lines. And then on the solar dust collector they installed switches upside down.

it's comprable to putting a quarter on the train tracks and watching what happens to the quarter. It sounds like NASA has nothing better to do than spend a whole lot of money to make some galactic fireworks....Prioritze much? Heeelllloooo
