A Meaningless Post


Two things.

Firstly, has anyone really taken a look at what astronauts wear when out-of-doors? It's not flannel (tragedy, that), but this complex system of underwear and compression clothing and a self-contained air conditioner more commonly called a space suit.

American space suits tend to be these bland, solid white jobs with shiny visors (that's gold leaf, yo) to keep the sun from blinding the astronauts.

The Chinese, on the other hand, have these stylish white-and-blue striped jobs that harken back to the days of the navy.

They look much better.

But I'm holding out hope for the Bio-Suit, an MIT creation. Among other things, It's skin-tight. Schwing!

Also, Clay Aiken and Lindsay Lohan have both come out of the closet, to the surprise of prescisely zero people.
