Please don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is obviously me, But my attitude depends largely upon you.
Be a hoot to be up there taking my own photos/video.

Even though that is top down, it almost makes me homesick for the Great White North. I've seen dozens of auroral displays in my life, and they are gorgeous.

Wow. Now a screen capture of one of those shots would make a fantastic QSL card background!

Indeed. I've never seen one of those displays. Non existant in these neck of the woods. I guess I should get out of the cave a little more often.

Remember July 1968? Back then, we all assumed we'd have space tourism by now.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
I know. Wasn't one of the premises of Lost In Space that we'd have space craft circa 1996? * sigh *

I blame the robot. He was a snitch.
