'Smile Time'
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.
See, this is the shit I get myself into. No co-worker is supposed to email me and tell me I'm pretty and ask if I'm single. I don't even make those jokes with your colleague that's hot and has the accent. It's completely off limits for everyone.
And I swear, of all the shit I've been pulling today, I totally did not predictably set myself up for that.
Timelies all!
As usual, I have Nova on my lap. I'm just waiting for her to go after my earrings.
Oh, shit! What do you call the group of people that believe they really have spirit animals, and they're a mustang soul, not a human? I am having a hard time working out search terms that I don't mind being stored in the work log from this IP address.
Is it animism?
Find out why NASA engineers call the upcoming Mars landing "Seven Minutes of Terror"
I've got tix to go see the landing (or really, just listening to people in the control room panic, I guess), but I have no friends so I have to go by myself. :(
Yo Is This Racist now has a call-in number where you can ask him questions on voicemail for his podcast.
OMG I totally want to call in and yell.
14 light minutes?! That's so far!
Why is that the part that is wigging me out?
Maybe I should have invited Andrew Ti. I'm sure there are no racists on Mars.

I'd totally go with you!
Not sure if it's worth flying to LA, though.
14 light minutes?! That's so far!
Why is that the part that is wigging me out?
The moon is about 2.5 light-seconds away. The sun is about 8 light-minutes away.
Does that help, or make it worse?
heh. There will be many JPLers there to hang with and it lands at some crazy time at night.
