I really love talking about tractors and splitting wood, but watching NASA TV right now as Crew Dragon gets ready to depart ISS is just effing amazing!! I was 15 and stayed up all night to watch Neil Armstrong on a fuzzy BW TV. The stuff I'm watching now live with Crew Dragon makes me feel like that 15 year old kid! fred ------------- 2014 RPod 178 => https://goo.gl/CV446f - MyMods and Buying Habits 2008 4Runner Limited 4.0-liter V6 Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks! |

Space was so strange to us and beautiful on the 60s. Still is. ------------- Mike Carter 2015 178 " I had the right to remain silent, I just didn't have the ability." |

Even better than when we watched Flash Gordon with Ming the merciless on the old round black and white tv set.

But we can tell Elon liked Flash a lot! So how do you know you liked Flash better than Elon?  lol.... Bob and Doug Mckenzie in the Great White North...Take off, you hosers! Fully automated flight. Monkeys could have done it. Starman and the Space-Faring Roadster.... I mean, this guy is like a VERY rich 13 year old....just too funny sometimes. Especially when he smokes weed on TV. But hey ya never know, he and Tony Stark might be working on a transporter. I know someone that I would suggest for the first test subject! Not saying who.  ------------- r･pod 171 gone but not forgotten! |

Liked “better?” Ok if we’re going to pick on the precision or lack of same in the use of the English language:
To increase or decrease the force of your 'liking," only two appropriate words are available to you: you like something more, or less. You can't like something better or worse, because these are words that comment on the value of liking, not its intensity. 😜 Let’s ask X Æ A-12 how he feels about daddy’s childish games in a few years... ------------- 1994 Chinook Concourse 1995 RV6A Experimental Aircraft 2015 Rpod 179 - sold |
