They are going to be so surprised when they get to the moon and find out we've never been there.

I knew it I knew it I knew it! Somebody had to come in and say that! Well played Yav, even if I think you're wrong, well played!

Or were you being sarcastic? In which case I retract my "even if I think you're wrong" immediately.

Thank you, LetUsReason.

I am completely amused!

Man I just wish I could find more worthwhile threads to bring into this blog! Between this one and the absinthe one I posted yesterday... well, that's two. There's nothing else I have found that was either worth a damn or that someone hadn't already posted! Boohoo, my contributions suck!

There's always subscribing to an RSS feed!

I wouldn't lament the obvious: You have a life outside the DR!

Sure, but that doesn't start until 2000 tonight when I go see how fast I can lose at a poker game again!

Buffalo Bob says the aliens who built the lunar base will get pissed off if we send up junk and will declare war on earth. Better be careful what we send up there.

Thought for a minute there this was one of yours!

Okay, then we'll keep the thread going for awhile *grin*

$20 million for a chance to land right smack dab in the middle of where all that loot from the Great Pyramid that nobody can find ended up?

I wouldn't call that self-indulgence.

I'd call that a wise investment.

Can aliens claim the prize? If so, tough luck earthlings. The Helium miners from Antares already have it nailed.

How dare they?? Don't they know that Robot will probably land right smack dab on that olden Smokestack that is on the moon?? What are they gonna do if it gets stuck sliding down the chimney?? Call the local Lunar Fire Department to extricate it??

With a prize of 20 million, I sure hope someone tries it.

Otherwise get a couple of potheads together, give them the idea. I can hear the first words out of their mouths "First you take a piece of metal....."

Sorry couldn't resist.

Seriously, I hope someone does try it.

and Letus, didn't know you had ego problems, I know a cure for that.

FF for YAV!

Regards,
etc.

Wonder if we could get GWB launched up there? 20 million in pocket and no R & D for a robot. It'd be a two-fer...

FF for USN

What a great idea, can ship Dick up there too?

On the other hand, LetUsReason, this did make the front page. It's also pretty cool. I like private enterprise getting involved.

What ever happened to the first commercial flight to the moon? Wasn't it supposed to have happened already?

Wonder if we can ship people there who have to make political statements on a non-political thread. If not them, at least their left knees that jerk uncontrollably.

What ever happened to the first commercial flight to the moon? Wasn't it supposed to have happened already?

They haven't done a commercial orbital or even sub-orbital flight yet unless those millionaires who paid to hitch a ride to the ISS count.

But I agree with YAV. It's great that private enterprise has gotten involved. They'll be much more effecient than a government bureaucracy like NASA. Just gotta get profits involved somehow.

Very interesting fanciful thread, and right-off - le backhand. Ex-pro-wrassler China pierced her gi-normous clitinus - that might work for yours too. GOOTCH!

Some kind of bladderbot that can (hopefully) "land", execute roving and maybe send images isn't too difficult to envision, as for getting it there, good freakin' luck.

If only it could be molecularly beamed.. Maybe a robot is among the slowest way to probe a satellite so close-by?

What would Jesus launch?

Maybe a giant maple seed?

Until they get a souvenir shop and a warm beach up there there's nothing to do but look at the earth, marvel at it's blue-green-white beauty, feel a chill, and hope you get back alive.

What does this mean?

"its"

Hate that

"its"

Hate that



At least you realized what you did. Most people don't know the difference between the contraction and the irregular possessive for that pronoun.

Why are going back?

Is the flag beginning to droop?

Public disappointment has eroded into mocking derision of NASA.
The brick has landed, but the corpse keeps raising shields!

I would ask what this means, but every other time that I have, I never get an answer. I've a feeling even the author doesn't know.

WTF?!

I'll bethe wonders why people don't take him seriously.

Dragon Lady
Potheads?
More like cranksters. They stay up all night tweeking. They like to try and build robots out of tin foil and match sticks.
Potheads only like to try and build pipes and bongs out of weird stuff.

What the hell, who changed my headline?! RCade, what was wrong with my headline?! Waaaahhh!!!

Actually, no, okay, it's all right, and I'm glad to see that this actually generated a little interest both of crazy and non-crazy variety.

Storm,

Excellent.

Top Gear is hilarious!

A perfect addition to this thread.

Not so, I built my real estate business working late into the night after working all day and I was sometimes taking a couple of tokes on a doobie after the regular job.

Instead of spending 20 freekin million to go to the moon to study fcuken rocks, how about taking 20 million and fix my city roads and build some house and help the poor. What idiots do we have in this country.. watch yer taxes go up people......BTW google a movie called "end game" you will love it.
