    I miss being in CA and watching them happen off my balcony. One of the very few things I miss about the LA area.

    Though prior service cant do it. If they hear someone say "zonk", it might get messy.

    Visited Vandy Land a few times as a member of the OIG team, but never got to see a lunch. Great beach.
    We just need to orbit a giant lint roller that catches debris. Once a week they peel a layer off in a space walk.

    :rofl:Oh god, the race to the airlock would be hysterical though.

    Somehow 2 would lose thruster control and start drifting towards the moon, Space Pvt Snuffy would manage to lose his communicator and the Bn would have to go sweep the surrounding space box. The Space Lances/Specialists would be daring each other to see how long they could take their helmet off on EVA. It would be a disaster.

    Meanwhile Sergeant Major would be just shaking his head and savagely insulting everyone. It also is this guy in my head:

    Still neat that the attempt was made. Hopefully they can try again and succeed. It's closer than I've ever been or ever will be to the moon so I give them praise. :laugh:
