Posted this on the other thread before I realized you all left. I'm bragging about my day
I got to go inside the Orbiter Discovery today. There is no "door" into the cockpit (called the forward bay). You wear a bunny suit (reminding me of my silicon valley days) and crawl thru hatches. Pretty awesome experience. It’s currently in it’s hangar, getting ready to roll out to the launchpad in January. It was a good day. Didn’t hurt that I got to spend about 45 mins chatting with the hottest looking guy on the Orion program. Yes, a very good day.

I’m eating a sandwich—ham, cheese, and lettuce on a wheat bagel. Booooring.

I LOVE those sandwiches.
I usually put a little butter on the bagel and broil it for a minute or so, just to warm it up. Then you put on the ham and cheese and stick it back in the broiler until the cheese melts.
Add lettuce, tomato, and Creamy Italian dressing.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
Any sort of bun or roll works.
I usually get whatever is the cheapest.

He is pathetic
One story had him coming out of the courtroom, with his only comment something like, “I hope to put all of this behind me.” Meaning, of course, that we all forget he’s a child molester. He still denies he ever did anything wrong, despite multiple convictions in different countries.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it if high heels rained from the sky.
First of all, it would be painful, because one of those heels is bound to hit you in the head and knock you out so you wouldn’t be conscious and able to enjoy the shoes anyway. Second, it would be impossible to find a matching pair, and third, they would probably all be in sizes 5 and 6, because the good shoes never come in the bigger sizes. Not that I’m bitter. (I don’t have big feet, I’m just tall! Leave me alone.)
And yes, I just spent way too much time analyzing a nonsensical commercial.
I hear ya.
It’s it impossible for them to make a 10? I have fingers for toes, people. I’d settle for a 9 1/2 and live with the pain.
