"Paging Mr. Musk. Paging Mr. Musk."

We may need your assistance to rescue American Astronaut Mark Vanke Hei currently in the International Space Station.

I don't have proof of it....

but I just know Elon Musk and SpaceX would love the opportunity to show Mr. Douchebagofcocks, the Russian Space Agency's chief how Americans roll. (Russia is threatening to abandon the American)

Where's that broomstick?

The questions are whether a SpaceX pressure suit needs to be customized on the ground before flight, whether the Crew Dragon's seats are personalized for each occupant before launch, and if there are any empty seats available in the broomstick capsules both on-orbit and scheduled for launch.

Since he went up on a Soyuz, I'm assuming that the Russian space suit connectors will not mate up with the broomstick's sockets...and that assumes that Roscosmos will let him keep his Russian-provided space suit as a souvenir of his vacation on the ISS.

If memory serves me correctly, SpaceX has a 4-person tourist flight to the ISS this month, and then another (3-person?) NASA flight in April. Maybe they can send one of those up with an extra seat or boot someone off? The Dragon capsule was supposedly designed as a 4+3 to match the Space Shuttle's 7 passenger capacity, but I don't know if they have ever installed/tested the second row of seats in an actual space flight yet.....

That soon TiMSport M340 will be worthless because BMW will put out the -

"M340x M package M Edition Alpina M."

His will just be the lowly base M340.

People are going to become more aware of the importance of mined nickel. EVs anyone? If you thought they were already expensive, buckle up.

It was costing me 52 cents/day to charge my car at home, and it seems so *dirty* to "steal" even that small amount of electricity from my not-for-profit employer.....

I know, right??? (plugs in personal cell to desk port)

It's fact. Georgia got about 45000, Finland about 44000. There are no train tickets from St. Petersburg to Helsinki till the end of March and the price was $9000 for 3.5 hours ride.
More to come... My friends in Moscow are planning to leave for good.

With my body, Tim. How else am I going to afford those f'ing knives?!

Nothing to be ashamed of here. 1. It's the worlds oldest profession so I'm just carrying in a proud lineage and 2. Don't you think cmyx6go deserves them??

Problem with that is she deserves to be happy aka satisfied, not disappointed.

Two birds one stone, Tim. As I continue to prostitute myself out, my skills should theoretically improve.

Work smarter not harder.

Ahhh. So you admit that you need to sharpen your skills and improve. So you can imagine someone like me that has already obtained said experience and skillset, there is no theory involved here. See, there are advantages to being more "advanced" in age. Don't read that as fvcking old though, just better.

BTW, keep yourself clean. I'm sure your object of desire wouldn't appreciate any STDs.

One can always hone and polish their skills, Tim. Kobe didn't stop shooting 3's in practice Now did he, Tim?

Besides, only one of us needs "assistance". Tell me, is Viagra cheaper in bulk? Clearly not all classics are made to run well.

You're "polishing" something alright. To answer your question, no idea. Never used it, nor needed it. Next.

Russian conscripts would prefer to be eating a Big Mac and drinking a latte at Starbucks than fight for Putin.

cmyx6go · 04-25-2022, 09:40 AM

The old guy I see in the supermarket every week was flirting with me yesterday....It didn't even occur to me until after I left.

Oh, wait. He's probably only a few years older than I am. Maybe this should be in the "You Know You're Old When" thread.
