NASA Rave

You know how it goes with the internet. You open a web browser to search for something important, for example, “who is the black dude in Predator that’s not Carl Weathers” (it’s Bill Duke).

Then, from there, logically, you wonder what sort of invisibility cloaks actually exist in real life.

Finally, through this and that and a weird side-trip to visit the grumpy cat (I’m crazy for this cat – she makes me happy) … and then … what do you know? You discover that NASA is plotting a giant outer-space based rave.

They’ve got these SATELLITES, MANNNNN, and they’re gonna, like, project these giants strobe lights and it’ll be like woaaaaaaah and everyone will not be able to stop themselves from like DANCING or something mannnnn.

No, really, it looks like a funny outer space dance party. See?

NASA Rave

Does NASA also have vans scattered throughout the globe with giant speakers and a Diplo track at the ready?

In reality, the satellites are there to observe the weather – in particular, tropical cyclones. Click on the picture to read more about the satellites. And, while you read about them, dance, dance, dance!

P.S. The satellites are known as the ‘A-Train’ … come on, clearly dance-inspired.

The Fiscal Cliff, Some Advice

I built a fiscal cliff once and it hurt like hell. Fiscal rolling hills are much better. You think those things occur naturally?

No! I have fiscal groundskeepers (and I make them work in skin-tight body suits so they can’t smuggle out the money).

A fiscal cliff. Pft! What, are you going to fiscal hang glide? Get real!

But … I’ll be honest. I built a fiscal cliff at one point. It was a lack of responsibility and unwillingness t

o deal with a tough situation that caused it to happen. You see …

Actually. Fiscal hang gliding sounds pretty cool. I need to see if someone can build me a hang glider with gold coins. Imagine how that would shine in the sun!

Thanks for the chat!

Dear Ellen,

I have a stressful week ahead of me – a doctor’s appointment where I’ll get my blood drawn (read: I will end up having to take a “needle-induced nap”) AND my final! Yipes!

Wish me luck!

Sincerely,
