Martians must like Americans
Has anyone else noticed that only American Mars landers actually survive to transmit pictures back to Earth? The Russians landed the first probe on Mars back in '71, but it stopped transmitting 20 seconds after it landed. That one must have caught the Martians by surprise. They were more on the ball with other non-American probes.
Of course, even we can go too far - when we planned a landing near their south polar home, that lander had to go. Nevertheless, the success of our other probes is a clear indication that the Martians approve of our American way of life.

Bucks,
Bucks,
What do you think about W's upcoming statement, in which he might kind of announce to sort of send Americans to the Moon and Mars maybe in the next 20 years or something? It's that kind of language that really inspires the masses!
