Talong and short of it

If you are wondering why the RP space program is limited to joining contests of body spray companies, wonder no more. Apparently, the Court of Appeals has decided that Filipinos are not qualified to study and experiment with talong (story here).

Scientific guarantee. No such thing when the Americans decided to launch the Apollo missions. Astronauts could have died. This is a fact. Those mercury rockets? Those are basically fuel tanks. Picture those huge Petron tankers you see in the highway, now multiply that 10 fold. Stick an inverse funnel on its ass then light it. That's basically what a rocket is. Had that fallen into a major city, thousands could have died. Did that stop the Americans from being the first to land on the moon?

Well, we'll never get there. The CA do not even trust Filipino with talong. And our NDCC leaders are telling us to run for cover whenever North Korea decides to try to launch a rocket into space.
