The real news sometimes passes us by, as we eke out our survival and freak out at the state of our lives.
I am grateful, therefore, to have been sent this snippet that might just change the way you think and live.
For here, at a White House press conference earlier this week, is President Obama revealing a “secret project we’ve been working on for some time.”
What could this project be? A crowdsourced surveillance program? A health insurance Web site that works?
No, America is building Iron Man.
You don’t have to take my word for it.
For here the president began by saying that he would be joined by America’s finest researchers, digital cloud designers, and important people from the Pentagon.
He then uttered these words: “Basically, I’m here to announce that we’re building Iron Man.”
