NEWS FLASH: COLBERT WINS NASA NAME VOTE
NASA asked for submissions to name a module on the International Space Station a while back. Comedy Central show host Stephen Colbert commanded his minions to vote to name it after him. Over 230,000 of his zombies slaves followed his evil dictates. Now he's won!

Colbert Wins ISS Naming Contest


My own nomination for the multi-windowed observation module, "Vista", has been soundly defeated by both "Colbert" and the Joss Whedon contingent vote of "Serenity".
Not that I am bitter. That fact that MY zombie slaves have failed me will have nothing to do with the reduction in gruel rations that they will be subjected to in the coming weeks. It's just an unintended consequence of the increasingly difficult gobal economy.
Now it's time to put aside personal differences and move forward toward a bright new tomorrow.

Your zombie slaves are probably still cursing Microsoft, which is why they weren't able to vote for "Vista."

Maybe if I had changed the name from "Vista" to "Mojave" I would have beaten those two bastrads.

Considering the trouble I've had with this stupid computer not playing nicely with my phone and a couple of programs I'd *like* it to run... I think it's probably just as well that Vista didn't even come close.
