I hope you personally know this guy that posted the original martian 
joke.  

If you don't ...
isn't your choice of words rather strong for an arbitrary flame?
This must be your first or second posting; you just coudln't wait
to post something, anything, even a flame, since you coudn't think 
of a joke.  Try contributing something constructive, or atleast
net.silly ... The originator of the joke doesn't deserve such
abusive language; that is, again, unless you know him from some prior
flame-outs.

If your reply was intended to be a joke ...
your posting is not even remotely funny.  It is, however, laughable, 
and you are too, for thinking it might be.
