    Goat

    Now here's a really nice Goat:
  2. My thanksgiving was six weeks ago, but if any Washingtonians have too much leftover turkey, stuffing, or yams, they can punt it over the 49th parallel to me. Atthe time, I was thankful to just have two days off...
  3. I saw a brand of tire called “LoadRunner” today. Now I have this stuck in my head:
  4. And any parts left over after that you obviously didn’t need...
  5. He was the cofounder and rhythm guitarist of the Aussie hard rock band AC/DC. He also wrote many or most of their songs. He was usually lost in the shadows behind brother Angus and original lead singer Bon Scott (who was replaced by Brian Johnson when Bon died after “a night out in London”) Malcolm’s Rhythm guitar is what you’d be pumping your fist or banging your head to
  6. Yeah, I found the response to be lacking. Maybe not enough people recognized the name *runs to edit title* AC/DC is one of my favourite bands, which is probably obvious since most of the clips linked in my signature have AC/DC songs as the soundtrack F
  7. I’m just going nuts over the fact that they finally put trail mix in the snack machine at work. (No seriously, they did and I am)
  8. This tree outside my work was getting brilliantly lit up by the morning sun this fall. Picture taken with my iPhone.
  9. Well, one BFR+BFS has a cargo of what, 150 tons? It could drop ten fifteen-ton reentry pods each containing an unmanned tank drone, without even needing to land near hostiles.
  10. AC/DC co-founder and guitarist Malcolm Young died early today after a long battle with dementia. He was 64. Another great rocker from my youth down. Thanks for all the great pounding tunes. I hear him ringing Hell's Bell's.... I'm really surprised this hadn't been posted yet.
  11. I don’t think I’ve seen a DIV fly with SRMs before
  12. I agree that a good space program is supposed to be boring. Perhaps they can market ISS EVA videos as sleep aids... There are two ways to provide drama In a realistic space movie: catastrophic equipment failure (possibly from sort of impact (oh wait that’s been done)) or personnel problems, where someone goes over the high side/goes psycho/is breaking bad. Surely someone’s problems can slip through the cracks.
  13. “additional mission assurance work” - adding more duct space tape?
  14. Today I stitched together yesterday's raw challenge footage into a music video....
  15. I created this for the Destroy KSC challenge. I figured I should share it here as well.
  16. No surprise to have dead batteries after that Delta2 sat in storage for however long.
  17. I gave up on life support since it got too tedious for my liking. I just make sure there is a forty day cruise in there somewhere, between SOIs (which also resets the timer)
  18. I have the Tourism Plus contract pack, where one of the contracts is to “Hold a space camp.” For hauling 15-16 tourists to Kerbin orbit for forty days, you get three kerbonauts joining up. My “ Space Camp Bus” holds 23 kerbals and can do the Mun flyby - Minmus Landing - Kerbol orbit - back to Kerbin run with a comfortable margin. So I have room to train any other kerbonauts that need it, or haul up more tourists, or do some rescues at the same time.
  19. I couldn’t quite tell what that was visible in the window. At first I thought it might be Jeb
  20. I had that book and several others. Actually, Destination Moon was part 1 of a pair; that frame was from part 2, Explorers on the Moon
  21. What do you get when you divide the circumference of a pumpkin by it's diameter?
