Keith Woolford Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Apparently a Google satellite fell out of the sky and landed in the Comarca. The Gnabes there are willing to let them have it back for $4,000,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundageba Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) Sure wish it landed in my back yard. I'd give them a deal at 2 million Edited November 10, 2017 by Brundageba 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John R Hampton Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Google has confirmed they will pay $4 million for the device but only if the Gnabes can return it to working order. In further news, here are Google's real balloon/satellite projects: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Loon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneWeb_satellite_constellation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Woolford Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) Hmm, someone said that the Indigenous folks are working on building a giant catapult because Google will only pay off if the satellite goes back where it came from. This stuff reminds me of the old flick ‘The Gods Must be Crazy.’ Edited November 11, 2017 by Keith Woolford 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This stuff reminds me of the old flick ‘The Gods Must be Crazy.’ As I recall, a Kalahari Bushman found a coke bottle that was dropped from an airplane. That bottle messed up their whole culture in odd ways. The movie was profound and also funny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarieElaine Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 If I recall correctly didn't they return the coke bottle to the Gods as a useless device in the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why a giant slingshot might be not be such a bad idea. Edited November 12, 2017 by Keith Woolford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
