See what you made me do?!

Did you cc: yourself to remind yourself to count your spelling errors? Are you going to punish yourself later?

How many lashes for this?

All a girl needs is a rubber mallet, a crescent wrench, and a Black & Decker rechargeable screwdriver.

Oh, and a drawer full of knives.

Comments? Who wants to go? What should we take, et cetera?

Sign me up!

I wrote my first application letter to NASA when I was 11 years old, but I never got in. *sniff*

What should we take? Well, how long will we be gone? I'm thinking food, water, toilet paper, maybe some books, lots of beer, and all of Free Republic.

BTW, what exactly are we dropping off for NASA?

Punishment: Talaghrak!

Lashed to D-sheare, you must RUN! through the faug infested tarpools of Krather.
You will then SWIM! through the soda vats of Mingus 7.
Upon completing that task, and resuscitating D-sheare after the near death experience in the soda vats, you will be forced to HEAR! the Barney theme.
/ end silly punishment bad joke.

No lashes, just batting eyes.

I'm envisioning a lady questioning the guy person late at night using the rubber mallet, crescent wrench, and rechargable screwdriver.

But that is only because my sis would do that.

BARNEY?!

No, no, not that! Not that! Arrrrrggghhhh!

That is so cool.

I did a post like that once, and it took forever to spell all the words wrong. I had to keep checking to see if I'd remembered all the letters in each word.

LOL

Well, true.
The Barney theme IS too horrible to use, even for that.

Duct tape, and baling wire.
Works wonders.

Consider yourself signed up!

"...what exactly are we dropping off for NASA?"

I'm not sure what's in the package. I'm trying to develop a working relationship with NASA. We need their expertise to handle the navigation and telescope instrumentation on the way to Mars. It's about ten tons of "assorted cargo."

My guess, it's some robots, assaying equipment, Laser reflectors, and other automated equipment. That's what I'd put in.

Of course, I'd have a self-replicating robot factory bundled into it also, with plans for a catapult launch facility. Lunar materials can be used to make all kinds of valuable stuff. Even a remote-control robot could be plenty useful over the course of time, as it put together a moon-base and manufacturing facility.

(By the way, we need a new word -- manufacturing is not appropriate. How about "mechanofacturing?")

I forgot 10W40, (or would that be 3in1 oil) to grease the hinges on the box that contains the duct tape. ;-)

Gosh, yes, can't forget the duct tape!

We can buy premade frozen doughnuts, and just fry them up when we're ready to eat.

Love to help you guys but I'm still trying to figure out what the meaning of "IS" is.

Stepping out for a couple of hours... y'all behave!

Hi, Kids!

I want to go, of course. And fanfan, we have our own brewery, so we will make the beer as we go.

The lag on this thing can often be as long as 45 minutes, so be ready for it. Ever since I broke the thing Sunday, it hasn't been the same. (Are they waiting for me to fix it????)

What's everybody doing today besides getting ready to go to the moon?

TC, are you still fighting the yuckies?

I'm ready to go, for sure! And I know how to make doughnuts, so don't worry.
