Sounds like it would be cheaper to take a camera. And somebody should paint some Mecha nose art on the rocket.....CID1990 wrote:over/under on all of them becoming art ON the moon?∞∞∞ wrote:Japanese billionaire Yusaka Maezawa will be one of the first civilian passenger to fly around the moon.

The Russian military said the Il-20 reconnaissance aircraft was hit 35 kilometers (22 miles) offshore late Monday as it was returning to its home base nearby.
“The Israeli pilots were using the Russian aircraft as a shield and pushed it into the line of fire of the Syrian defense,” Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu called his Israeli counterpart, Avigdor Lieberman, later Tuesday to say that Israel is “fully to blame” for the deaths, the ministry said.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business ... han-years/A 45-year-old American woman shattered a two-decade-old cycling speed record Sunday, pedaling 183.9 mph across Utah’s Bonneville Salt Flats in the slipstream of a specially designed racecar.
The record for paced cycling speed was previously held by Dutch rider Fred Rompelberg, who hit a top speed of 167 mph in 1995.
For Sunday’s record-breaking attempt, Denise Mueller-Korenek rode a custom-designed machine featuring a unique double drivetrain capable of propelling the bike forward 128 feet with each revolution of the pedals, a necessity for hitting speeds surpassing the takeoff velocity of the typical commercial jetliner. By contrast, a typically geared bike might travel about 17 feet with each pedal revolution, and racing bikes used in competitions like the Tour de France hit around 30 feet per turn of the pedals in their highest gear.

https://wtop.com/local/2018/09/why-coll ... age-stamp/A Fairfax County focus group this summer found many college students who have gotten an absentee ballot simply fail to send it back because a U.S. Postal Service stamp seems to be a foreign concept to them.
“One thing that came up, which I had heard from my own kids but I thought they were just nerdy, was that the students will go through the process of applying for a mail-in absentee ballot, they will fill out the ballot, and then, they don’t know where to get stamps,” Lisa Connors with the Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs said.

Let that sink in for a moment...for the lack of a stamp, they don’t vote... not my words, it’s theirs...

Tech-savvy, but they can’t wipe their own asses. Man, talk about an angry white man...I’m a lot older than you and I buy my stamps on-line...which is why I’m not angry...mainejeff wrote:Enjoy the last years of "stamps" old farts! Are you really denegrating an entire generation that is about a decade away from controlling this country for the next 30 or 40 years after that just because they don't "go to the post office"? I fvckin hate going to the post office.....always a cluster fvck of old people. It takes 30 minutes just to get a parking space.

Well, let's be honest. If we went really old school and were playing $10,000 Pyramid or something, things like a "stamp" or a "postage meter" would be in the category of "things you could find in the workplace", hence why most millennials would flub that category.Ivytalk wrote:One step removed from a postage meter.∞∞∞ wrote:What the hell is a "stamp?"
Yes, I use the internet to do everything on-line hence "stamps" are pretty much useless to me.GannonFan wrote:Well, let's be honest.

And seriously, who's buying stamps in a post office other than old people? We do have something called "the internet" now. It's very useful.
