Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh, poor lori!

What drove the Apollo missions is long gone from NASA. I'm all for it doing robotics, and I think it will. But the human question? It's off the list. Yeah, I was upset over Challenger and Columbia. But... it's a risk astronauts know and accept. I admire them for that. Hell, I think it IS acceptable, provided the humans involved acknowlege it. It is not a risk the agency will accept now, though.

Somebody else has to take up that challenge.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I could totally meet you guys for a drink!

Yay!

Exactly. I know folks that will accept that risk. But they don't run the joint.

okay - going home now.

And yay for Kristen joining us on Saturday!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heartless bastard!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Heartless bastard!

I'm sorry, but I can't get irate with anyone who can say:

So let me say defensively at the outset that I love animals, and I particularly love goofy animals like penguins, platypuses, ostriches, giraffes, sloths, armadillos and kangaroos who seem to have been designed by drunken angels on the day God was off making other worlds.

If he'd mentioned echidnas and mole rats too, I'd email him my support.

YAY! I can't wait to see everyone.

Also, while looking up some stuff online the other day, I had this odd impulse to go to Vegas for my birthday in October. But only go to LA places while there. It amused me to think about it.

I'ma buy you a drink, Kristen.

I think you should do Vegas for your birthday. I hear all the cool kids are.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

If he'd mentioned echindnas and mole rats? I suspect you'd reevaluate that whole straight thing you have going on.

Y'know, I love echidnas, but I don' t love echidnas, if'n you know what I mean. I'm pretty confident that if I can maintain that distinction with the very source, I can do so with a bewhiskered rabbi.

Even if he's cuddly?
