Tomorrow (01/23) is a tremendous anniversary.
Did you guys know that on this date in 1960, we actually went to the bottom of the Marianas Trench? For 20 minutes?
Well that must have been just the first time. Heck, we’ve landed on the moon six times and it’s a couple of miles away. This is right in the backyard.
How many times have we been to the bottom of Mariner’s trench? How long? And when was it?
Enquiring minds want to know!
Yep, pretty sure we were there more than just once.
So, I’ve heard that we’ve been to the bottom of the Marianas Trench. What I need to know, though, is how long we were down there, and when this took place. Also, how many times did we do it?
The only manned descent was by the Trieste.
Three other unmanned probes followed.
*And *it’s Franklin Panborn’s birthday! One of the great nellies of filmdom. “Merciful heavens!”
Ah! they are 2000’s style SDMB memes.

What is down there?
I can’t hear you. I have Duran Duran’s “Rio” playing 'way too loud.
The article did not mention whether they burned a dog and masturbated like a motherfuck while they were down there. Sorry. 
They where looking for OG, wasn’t there.
What a technological feat! I have a couple questions about the equipment used:
Was an airliner and a treadmill involved at any point?
And did they use any scalar weapons by any chance?
Stuff that was thrown into quarries?
I’ve been noticing this meme lately. What’s it from?
Ah, I see. Thanks.
Fortunately I have no quarry around here.
