    Why is it that I hear the theme music to "2001 A Space Odyssey" when I look at these pictures ?

    Come on guys, there are plenty of other threads to bitch about politics. Please keep them out of this one.

    Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss. A great piece of music.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    I'm not bitchin, ah say it's a joke son.

    Space has always intrigued me. My best friend, best man @ wedding who since passed on, was a major behind the scenes player years ago in space exploration. One of those brainiacs who could tell you off top of his head how much fuel you needed for lift off, with XX payload in x weather etc. Yet the guy still managed to drive in to the bay one night. How you manage that. It was dark he said He was serious too.

    Yeah, I'm not sure why I quoted you. That was really directed at Funkymonkey.

    Space is awesome.

    While I'm not sure I'd like to go into space with current technology (the mental stress of it might turn my hair white), I would like to experience true weightlessness (and I've skydived twice, loved it btw).
