I ordered a mocha coffee drink today and it contained GODIVA Chocolate.
the coffee shop abbreviated it as "GOD". Perhaps one can reach a higher
spiritual plane by imbibing such a concoction?!

I could use some localized space situational awareness. Often when I parallel park my car, I scrape the curb with one wheel or the other.

I'm trying to park close to the curb in the hope that the dopes who knock off my sideview mirror will not do so. They could use some localized space situational awareness, too.

Don't forget that HAARP will soon be deployed to bring an end to the Georgia drought.

I can live with that- as a term if not in reality, anyway.


I'l presume the "Manual" indicates a "man on the loop" as opposed to an automatic ( conditionally derived) implementation.

Seraphim? - Situationally Evaluated Rapid Access Positional Holistically Integrated Maps.

or

Cherubim? - Calibrated, Heuristically Evaluated, Rationally Understood Bastions of Immediate Mercatorism?

innovative nanosatellite technologies capable of independently providing localized space situational awareness

LOL!! Bruce, I had forgotten what it was like to be among people who talk like that. Localized spatial situational awareness...my word! What if I just want to know where the fuck I am and whether there's a bus coming or not?

:D

BTW this business of using Angels as an acronym is really scary. Does the Pope knopw about this? Imagine the reams of confusion -- childhood prayers, hymns, testaments, all shot to hell by one guy stealing a word to make an industrial acronym out of. Awful to contemplate, eh?
