@Unca,

Thanks for the thoughts. I’m not hanging in the cave anymore, although I will go back for a bit next month.

And as far as the guys from the bogus space mission, how come none of them were wearing a clown nose? I thought that was part of the space uniform now?

@Nosmo: That’s the problem with a still shot like this. What you missed was the video from this scene. Somebody started up some music, and the men started to do the Full Monty. When they unzipped their space suits, they were wearing those T-shirts underneath.

Hey, those guys aren’t wearing their official T-shirts, the ones that read ‘I went into pretend space for 520 days and all I got was this crappy rose’.

Where’s Dave? I’ll accept ‘Daves not here!’ But, is Dave all right?

Not to downplay Cheech and Chongs comedy, but I hear that some rough play has been dealt to some of the contractors based in Afghaniland. Or at least to their compound.

I guess the question of, ‘How’s Dave?’ would be more correct, but I do worry about that rascal!

I’d've gone postal after 5 days, let alone 500. Did they really give them booze on the earlier experiment?! What else would result from that than chaos?

I am gonna give it a go;

Russians back from space
Though they never left the ground
Did they still drink Tang?

As a trip, it leaves much to desire. Though when you think of it, they got free room and board, free uniforms, no traffic jams to deal with on the road and got paid for it? Then got a pretty rose when they got out as a thank you? Had the opportunity been over here, I’d have signed up for it when I was out of work! When is the next mock trip to Venus? (All the men were from Mars.)

Especially when the only entertainment was a dubbed copy of Capricorn One.
