AMERICA has decided to revive its old friendship with France by giving it a garish plastic megachurch for the middle of its capital city. 
The US has remembered the lovely metal statue that France gave it for New York harbor and decided to return the favor with a huge church by the designers of Disney World.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said: “The best thing is because it’s plastic, we can prefabricate the whole thing off-site. They’ll just wake up in the morning and it’ll be there.
“We’re thinking something like a fairytale castle but with big neon crosses all over it to show it’s a church, and of course the various sponsor’s logos.
“The spire will look just like a 300ft baguette – those dudes love baguettes – and the roof will be retractable so it can host open-air church services and two NFL games per season.
“And just wait until they see the Hall of Animatronic Jesuses, all the way from baby Jesus through Teen Preacher Jesus to his final, climactic battle with the Romans on Golgotha Hill. It’s a real thrill ride.”
President Emmanuel Macron said: “Wow. This is, as we French say, trés merde.”
 How about because the melting point of gold is 1064 degrees and a wood fire burns at around 600 degrees, you superstitious twats?

Idiots at Work: NASA said India's satellite destruction created so much space junk it now threatens the safety of the International Space Station

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said the satellite shattered into small pieces of space junk that posed an "unacceptable" threat to astronauts and called it a "terrible, terrible thing."
 India said that it deliberately chose to destroy a satellite in low orbit with the goal of keeping the debris from harming the station or other satellites and that the debris would fall back to Earth and disintegrate.
But Bridenstine said pieces were moving above the station and "that kind of activity is not compatible with the future of human spaceflight."
"What we are tracking right now, objects big enough to track - we're talking about 10 cm (4 inches) or bigger -about 60 pieces have been tracked," he said.
He said 24 of those pieces were traveling above the ISS, even though the satellite had been orbiting 185 miles above the Earth, lower than the station, which orbits roughly 250 miles above the Earth.
NASA told the risk of the ISS colliding with debris had increased by 44% in 10 days as a result of the Indian missile.

17. Very simply, this setup eliminates access to a floor. It starts mid stairway and continues around and down where a small, raised landing has been built.

Loved The Keith Richards/Betty White bit!
I'll have to research the "Markle Sparkle" as I'm way too gullible.
Thanks for a good read today.
