Don't ever follow, go your own way

The summer of New Horizons is upon us. So naturally, we'll get all spaced n shit with CandyO a little techno ass kicker from the late 70s. This is without a doubt an '11' on your stereo. Try it, you'll like it. Ok and after that check the New Horizons video. New Horizons, if you didn't already hear, is the fastest lil muther ever built by mankind. It's racing at Pluto for a July 14 visit. What will we find? Is Pluto made of colored ice like a snow cone? Is it dotted with rock candy mines? Does it have molten chocolate fudge calderas? We don't know. But we want to know. God bless our bold will to discover. May it push us onward.

Hi Summer, We've Been Waiting For Ya

What year are you? Everyone seems to be particularly fond of a year in their youth. Maybe even stuck there in the mind. Personally, we drift thru the mid 70s. These two songs are filling the studio here at the milkshake with 70s summer memories so thick we have to grope for our 8-track cassette on fingers laden with mood rings, clutching thru a haze of funny smelling smoke trapped in our potato shirt for beach babies and that elusive sky hi high. And you???

feels so good, it must be wrong

Our staff here at the control tower was busy compiling today when they were posed this statement: You might not want what you got, but you got what you need, and sometimes, you wind up having what you'd rather not but you keep it anyway, and sometime later you are glad you did. This was some freaked up phrasing. The only rational course of action after that was to enjoy Dr. Hook's Freakers Ball and laugh. "C'mon babies grease your lips" And Laugh. "and don't forget to bring your whips" AND LAUGH! Go smear your body up with butter! (These guys are still out there doin' their thing. No shit. Rock on.)

Waves Again

Anyhow, we want the airwaves. That is succinct. What's out there that you want? MST3K? Missile Command? How about those timelapse projects? Keep up with the New Horizons space ship which is fast approaching Pluto. It will arrive in a month. Mark July 14th. It's the big space story of the year. Now the Ramones make their demands clear. We like that. Don't you?

So many have covered him. Gone too soon (18 years now). Love what he did. Snowin on Raton and Pancho and Lefty.

When Wellness Gives Way To Starryness; Wordiness Becomes Satisfyingly Emboldening

How are your words? Are they smacked up? Are they jivvy? Or are they just plain plain? While you are deciding you can think about watching a NASA flying saucer test this weekend. Info below. Get your June moving and don't let your weekend drag around on the ground. Are you a certain year? Did you get stuck there? What is it? Somewhere in the robonomical 80s? The eight-mile-high 60s? The freaky freaked freaking 70s. Think about it while you play starman and while you think of words to describe yourself and the world and the juxtaposition of both. We'll wait here while you work on your worthiness. Whoop! When and where do I tune in to see a flying saucer? According to the NASA website: NASA commentary will be carried on NASA TV and on the Web at http://www.nasa.gov/nasatv and http://www.ustream.tv/nasajpl2.
