Space shuttle

Unfortunately we are in an indoor range, something about the owners legal liability if they let me use their guns and ammo in the streets.

Looks like the owners read Terb.

Great. Shot a lot better today I was using a Baretta. Saturday with the Sig was not as good.

I was using the LAPD, body cavity vital organ points score targets today.

The complementary happy two hours is underway in the Hotel so I better get going.

LOL. Happy Hour and Gunplay, sounds interesting.

Have fun!

The two stars are passing over right now

 

[trisket]

i hope they make it home.. another ship burining up would kill the program..

If that's what it takes to end the program, I'm all for it burning up on re-entry.
A disgusting waste of our resources.

After reading all this drivel I began to contemplate the profound. Imagine Peter North jerking off in zero gravity.

Now imagine a seagull fly over upon re-entry.

Hey, whatever gets you through re-entry.

The first one, I think the ISS, looked larger and for some reason seemed to be a little orange in colour. The trailing one, presumably the shuttle, looked smaller but had a very bright glint before it passed above the moon.

To clarify.

All range time is over for the day. Once you have a drink thats it.

Pussies you are. I shoot much better after downing a few.

I'm hoping that your are just wishing for an end to manned flights instead of a complete termination of space exploration since it's a given that the Earth is of finite size and that no matter how good we get at recycling we will never reach 100%, turning our back on space would be a foolish wish.

If we don't get into space to start using the resources out there our existence will at some point end.

Granted there should be more emphasis on using BDBs (Big Dumb Boosters) to lift material into orbit since sending up a manned mission requires a large amount of energy to lift the consumables needed to keep the people alive. Manned missions would only be needed to put together/make use of the stuff that the BDBs put into place.

Now with using robots controlled from Earth we could reduce the number of manned shots even further.

There still is a need for manned shots since people are willing to pay several thousand dollars for the chance to get into space. Manned shots will provide the interest that keeps the space program alive.

It survived re-entry in one piece.

I'm old school, Saturn 5 all the way. Anything else is for chicks and old ladies.

One of the replacements will be as big as a Saturn V.

It can't be any taller if they're going to be using the same Vehicle Assembly Building.

They have realized using one vehicle for crews and cargo is expensively inefficient, not to mention more dangerous when it's strapped to the side of rockets. The new ones will have them on top of the stack.

We finally have a case where NASA engineers trumped terbite engineers....

sorry

I couldn't resist adding salt to wounds.....

so many stupid people to offend, and so little time......

We also developed a new card game combining some rules from poker. We call it Draw Bridge.

Have you tried seven card bridge?

What a card. You should be dealt with.

Yep, down the river.
