I’m just waiting for my latest copy of “Rat Rover”
to see what kind of Red Neck Martian jalopies people
have built.

A fancy new Mars rover? Big deal. I built one of those when I was just a kid. And I launched it towards Mars. Unfortunately, a gust of wind blew it onto my neighbor's roof.
It was later mangled by a squirrel. Such is science.

Which gives me an idea about making a small radio controlled car, mounted with camera and lights to patrol my small rural property. The critters are going to just love this, lol.
