The Return of Boris and Natasha

Earlier this week I posted this little innovation that I cooked up on my satire blog, The Vidalia Onion:

Broadcast History

For a Halloween chuckle, the following was posted at The Vidalia Onion: http://thevidaliaonionnews.blogspot.com/2014/10/today-in-history-war-of-worlds.html

If you have ever been in online discussions or listened to religious debate, you might find it entertaining.
