    This map does not accurately represent how far out the Voyager probes need to go before being blasted by Klingons.

    200 manned and unmanned exploratory space missions, and all we got was this lousy solar system map?

    Okay, it is actually kind of cool.

    Wow, according to that map, NASA only managed to do the Kessel Run in 14 parsecs. THAT'S why we need more funding. 12 or under should be our goal!

    I had seen pictures of the redwoods all my life, but when I saw one in person, I was awestruck by the reality of just how huge they are. I had never imagined there was really a tree that you couldnt see the top of.

    OK, unless you are hunting, running around the woods with camo on is uncool. I mean, if you fall and get knocked unconscious, how do people find you?

    @Bryan Tucker: If they did that, they'd keep finding UN soldiers!

    @mattycakes: I actually own a pair of camo boxers I wear if I feel I will be in a situation I may need to escape from.

    @weatherman: you can still get knocked out while wearing a helmet.

    @bornonbord: Well, while in a stand it won't, but walking yes, you should wear a blaze orange vest. I forget how many square inches.

    First: My Uncle Milt is eighty-some odd years old and retired in Beverly Hills. He is not an inventor. Someone is trading on my Uncle Milt's good name and when I find out, I'm going to sue him/her out of existence.


    Second: Why do you assume that my cat pooping is not interesting? One of my cats thinks that its fascinating to watch me poop and will howl if she cannot come into the bathroom to watch and cheer on my bowel movements. Just because you are not interested by poop does not mean others may not be.


    Do cats have porn? If they do, there may be various fetishes that cats have too. There may be money to be made in sheisse porn. It would probably be German.


    Hmmm... I should get a Prussian Blue and make some German, feline sheisse porn.
