That whole space thing, defined what it was like to be a boy in the 60's.

Pisses me off to no end to hear people say we faked it.

 

[TxRad]

Damn I'm getting old....

You faked it.


Kidding, but that was begging to be said.

You faked it . . .

Sure.

Anybody can see that the small outcropping near the horizon on the right is obviously a Navajo Blanket & Souvenir Shop on Nevada State Highway 50.

WOW! That is an impressive orgasm.

I know it was for real; I've seen it in the Science Museum in London. What that has to do with the price of fish, fuck knows!?

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words darling kiss me

Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you

I sometimes feel like I was born in the wrong time. I would have wanted to look up at night and imagine little americans waving back at me.

On the other hand, I am born in an age where it is a tiny bit possible I might go up there myself. Maybe, another 36 years ahead?

Travel to the moon has been a possibility for Americans since the early 1950's.


"One of these day, Alice . . . POW . . . ZOOM . . . right to the moon!"

By the way, that was a great movie.
