Back in the late 70s early 80s, I knew of a program that was doing this
very thing. Not
going into detail, but Aurora DOES exist. Flights we conducted between
Beale AFB
and White Sands (testing) then orbital (operational). The planes'
landing at Beale was
masked as a returning SR-71 flight. We were fearful that people would
ask questions about
the 'sky-quakes', so there was a cover story invented where the claim
would be made that military aircraft were accidentally going mach 1 too
close to civilian areas. In reality, as the plane flew over CA on its
way south, the shock wave would be heard and felt. As for the other
bases listed in the article, I don't know about them as I was not privy
to the 'operational' status of the aircraft. That is a good thing :)
You think the SR-71 is awesome ... you think STEALTH is fantastic ...
you think Area 51 has alien technology ... well that is a stretch, but
Aurora DID exist. It was canceled because it was too expensive, and
the Soviet Union fell in 1992.

...the funniest, and probably most risque line, that ever appeared on prime time.

Well...once on "St. Elsewhere", the episode's editing cut
to a cafeteria scene just in time to allow "Victor Erlich"
(Ed Begley Jr.) to utter the punchline to a great risque
joke:
"Pa, Ma can't come out now....she's busy weighing the mailman."

And it was the funniest damn show on tv. Most risque line though?? I
thought Leave it to Beaver had the most risque line during
primetime....'Ward, I think you were a little hard on the Beaver last
night'.

Was that line ever actually in the show? I know it was
"quoted" as a joke in "Revenge of the Nerds"...but I just
assumed that it was apochrophyl, just like "Beam me up, Scotty"
(which never appeared in Star Trek in those exact words).
