Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So we have to wait 20 years just to send humans to orbit Mars? Bah.
On Countdown last night, Derek Pitts pointed out that NASA ditched the Saturn V rocket after the Apollo mission completed, which would have been a great stepping off point for further developments on long-distance rockets for asteroid and Mars launches. So, I guess now they're having to start from scratch on the next generation of long-distance mission rockets.
From the same article: He said he used to put women on a pedestal -- giving them thoughtful gifts and taking them out to fancy dinners.
Here's a thought - women don't want to be put on a pedestal.
You know, I bet right now D is whining about what a nice guy he is and why does 10% of bad outweigh 90% of good. @@
I can certainly feel for the "if we hang out and she gets to know me something will just click" school of thought as it is so often mine. And also the "we're already pals and if I ask her out and she say's 'no' things will get irrevocably wierd" sentiment.
Hm. You guys should spend an hour in the OK Cupid message boards, where hoards of those guys are very, very angry at women.
Cliff's Notes, Allysonized: I AM A NICE GUY WHY ARE WOMEN SUCH ILLOGICAL BITCHES AND WHY WON'T THEY DO ME?
Like that. Asscaps are not optional.
It would best for my sanity to have a week off work before the movers come, right?
Right.

We need new heavy lift rockets to get big enough stuff in orbit to mount a mission. But getting to Mars needs something a lot more advanced than anything we have now.
The Earth to the moon is about 250,000 miles. At its shortest, the distance between the Earth and Mars is about 34,000,000 miles.
Ask me out, or don't. But doing something nice for me and then getting pissy because I didn't reciprocate in the way you wanted, which I never agreed to do, isn't being a "nice guy," it's being a manipulative brat.
amen.
Obama talked about building a new heavy-lift rocket in 2015. Dunno if this is the Ares V he's talking about....
No msbelle. I think you should work overtime while packing, knit four sweaters, prepare several casseroles, and volunteer at the local soup kitchen.
Of course, this is just one day in the world of msbelle, and I have no idea how you'll make me feel exhausted just reading your posts on the other six days.
TAKE THE WEEK OFF, CRAZYPERSON.
