Are you a spectator?

I like this one too.

Jerry O'Connell nails it...

...with this Tom Cruise Scientology video parody. Great stuff.

What a passenger spaceship looks like

Virgin Galactic unveiled the design of what a plane that can take non-astronauts into space will look like. Check out the article and video here.

If you watch the video, you'll see exactly how you'd be transported into space. The middle plane in the above picture detaches in mid-air, then rockets into the upper atmosphere and into outer space. Then, it simply drops back down onto Earth and, after adjusting its wings, settles in for a (hopefully) nice landing.

The astronomical ticket price aside ($200,000—I'm assuming this is for a round trip), I would feel hesitant, to say the least, to go on a space ride anytime soon.

Thoroughly Unmodern McCain

Well before Florida's election I think its time to officially declare myself on the Straight Talk Express. Let the criticisms from Aaron and others role in, but there's no one I'd trust more than John McCain for President. If you have the time and any interest in the republican side of the race, check out a NY times op ed from a few days ago: Thoroughly Unmodern McCain

For something more humorous check out the McCain Bloggett. While the Romney kids act as certified cheerleaders in their blog, McCain's daughter seems to just be having fun as a 23 year old on the campaign trail.

Regardless of the press the picture says it all for me.

I think I know what it is

On the left: Aaron's sighting.

On the right: scene from The Village.

Conclusion: it's an extra who has wandered off the set of that movie and has never found his way home since.

Be Prepared for anything...

What is this mysterious creature?
Why is it walking the streets of Reading, Pennsylvania?

It was Goodyear 26, Einstein.

A talented actor of our generation has passed away. New York Times coverage here.

Canada made me do it

I didn't think I wanted to blog again....then I saw this disturbing Canadian PSA, and it needs shared.

Wow.....be ready before you hit play! I'm still trying to confirm if Quentin Tarantino ever directed any PSAs in America Junior to get his career rolling.

Borrowing More Material from LJ

Original Commentary by our own scientology skeptic in Jersey:

"And here is an official Scientology video of Tom Cruise hawking his cult. Note the incessant use of the Mission Impossible theme. I dare you to derive anything meaningful or intelligible from his inane ramblings.

A post cartoonist took her own crack at cruise today managing to even disparage our president and vice president in the process:

Maybe if you were both doing less fromping you would understand.

Just makes you so proud (cont.)

Anyone have a bucket I can barf in? Ok, so the dude used part of his grandma's estate for library room 7b. Does the biggest waste of money at Dickinson since ATS really justify putting his face front and center in the library? The poster was next to the circulation desk when I went back to the big dick in january. I half expected the series to be up for sale in the bookstore.

Hey Pennington! Go jack off a turkey.

Mootisse's Finest Moment

I was going through old photos and this seemed appropriate for the first temporary blog posting. I think that's Andy freaking Roth in the background. Pretty funny to think of lally and (what's the other one's name?) as seniors. I think Mootisse deserves a wiki entry, with details of the escape and brief stint in john bass' room included. Ahh, the many things we could do if we didn't have a life (or even less of one)... like this Dickinson page: http://www.dickinson.edu/news/features/2004/cowparade/
