It's Sun-Earth Day I'm In Love (Sung To The Tune of "It's Friday I'm In Love")

A friend of mine sent this clip to me. After a day of viewing it over and over and over again (seriously, be careful, it's oddly hypnotic), I'm still not really sure what to make of it. There's definitely some creepy Dharma Initiative "Hello, I'm Dr. Wick, welcome to the Pearl Station" undertones in it, as well as some pretty f*cking amusing NASA humor mixed in there (we all knew the people working there have to be pretty bizarro, didn't we?).
The whole schtick has something to do with the promotion of
"Sun Earth Day", which similarly to what my favorite day - "Earth Day" does, tries to get us to appreciate the sun in all it's glory. To me this seems like a difficult task because the sun is kinda scary as far as I'm concerned, and the planet Earth just seems so friendly. But, because this video is so strange and I appreciate that, I'll try my hardest to love the sun on March 20th.



Thanks, Jonjon.

Something's Out There

The ones who know me well know all about my deep love for one Gordon Shumway - aka A.L.F.
When I was a little girl I was craaazy obsessed. A.L.F. is featured in every school picture of mine from nursery school up 'till 2nd grade. We were so cool together - the intergalactic bonnie and clyde of elementary school.
Anyway, I love aliens and I really hope that one day they come down for a visit. Who knows - maybe I'll even be able to hitch a ride to Melmac and hang out with TONS of A.L.F's! Far out!!
That's why this piece of news made me Happy...
It's a long article, so I'll save you some time an aggravation and just tell you that Alan Boss from NASA is convinced that there is at least one Earth-like planet rotating around every star in the Milky Way - or something like that...TBH, I got too excited to finish reading it.
YAY! Three cheers for the possibility of life on other planets!
