No. I do not know the Mohawk Guy.
Heh.
Maybe lori does.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I fell asleep before the rover landed, but now I'm looking at Mars pictures and thinking that I should go back to school and get a degree in engineering and work on building things that go to Mars. I'm really not awake enough yet to evaluate whether this is actually a good idea or not.

I woke up to NPR's first run of the rover coverage. I still can't believe it worked. When lori first described it to me, there was some hysterical laughter and a lot of 'no, REALLY?!!' from me.
Alrighty, unto the day.

Aw, I'm sad I missed the MSL watch-n-post! In my defense, it was really goddamn late on the East Coast. But hooray Curiosity!

You know, the whole sky-crane landing thing is straight out of science fiction, right? (Not that bouncing down with an airbag isn't, but this is even better.)
Laughing over the Mohawk flight controller. That is one attractive dude, no matter what his amusing hair is doing.

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

I just offered someone a bottle of wine in exchange for a taxidermied bullfrog playing an upright bass.
I think my day has reached maximum surreality.

As soon as I get it (I think tonight). I believe it will be an excellent birthday present for my brother (who does in fact play bass).
