The Plane They Couldn't Kill
The universe has a sense of humor. I know this not because I have studied the matter, but because I watch the news.
Actually, that’s exactly what it is. Evidence of a deranged intelligence behind things, one that took the Air Force’s thirty-year bureaucratic murder attempt on a subsonic tank-killer and responded by sending it to the Persian Gulf to hunt Revolutionary Guard speedboats. And if that’s the kind of thing passing for cosmic punchlines these days, I’m not sure I want to know what’s coming next.
