Lego man in space: one (very) small step

Two teenagers from Toronto sent a Lego man carrying a Canadian flag into the stratosphere. Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad, both 17, attached four cameras to a balloon carrying the toy astronaut 24km above Earth. A week after launch they recovered their Lego man in a field, and discovered they had captured stunning space footage

Do the cold, dark days of NYC in the winter bring you down? You can beat that on Saturday night at the Winter Vintage Ball. History will come alive in our unique 1929 Buttenwieser Hall ballroom as you learn and enjoy social dances and music from the Victorian era.
Refreshments will be served. Period or formal attire encouraged. See you there.

 Would love to do this.

Every year, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day presents us with an opportunity to renew our commitment to serving our communities.
On Monday, President Obama, Michelle Obama and First Book helped to refurbish a local elementary school library in Washington DC.  Together with a large group of volunteers, they cleaned, painted and organized 600 books donated to the school by First Book.
First Book was pleased to be a part of the First Family’s Day of Service.

bahaha Makers Mark whiskey, I will not be seeing you for a while.

The first time that drinking ever made me throw up (and I should note that this is a state that has never been common for me) was when I was 18 and had been taking shots of Jack Daniel’s because nobody had any mixers.  It’s been almost 10 years and I still can’t tolerate even a Jack and coke.
Young whippersnappers, I will not dissuade you from drinking in college, but trust me, you can skip the pre-game shots in those lacrosse guys’ common room. Nary a time will it lead to good things.  Stick to the watered-down beer, and learn to appreciate whiskey in small quantities when you can afford the good stuff.  Judging by the price tag of those well-mixed Manhattans at The Wren last night, I’m still not there.

It took me a decade to have another Manhattan after an incident at The Derby in Los Feliz that involved a swingdance partner who spun more than he swung.

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU DON’T THINK THERE’S ENOUGH SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT CLIMATE CHANGE?
BASICALLY, YES. I THINK THERE ARE TOO MANY CONFLICTING OPINIONS WITHIN THE GENERAL ‘CONSENSUS’ AND THAT IT’S FOOLISH TO TRY TO FORCE EVERYONE TO ACCEPT SOMETHING THAT EVEN ‘THE EXPERTS’ CAN’T AGREE ON, LET ALONE CHANGE THE WAY WE LIVE, JUST BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE TRUE. YOU CAN’T ASK EVERYONE TO BASE THEIR ENTIRE LIVES AROUND A HUNCH. IF YOU BELIEVE IT’S HAPPENING, FINE. DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS NECESSARY TO HELP, BUT DON’T START PREACHING TO ME ABOUT IT UNTIL YOU’VE GOT SOME COLD, HARD, IRREFUTABLE FACTS.
THAT’S INCREDIBLE. YOU JUST SUMMED UP MY ENTIRE OUTLOOK ON RELIGION IN TWELVE SECONDS.

I am not sure if I am reblogging this more for the content or the seal’s expression.

I’m getting letters from people who think that the neologism came first, that this was actually what Santorum meant and that Santorum was burdened with this unfortunate last name.

Dan Savage told Current TV’s Keith Olbermann. 

True. A friend told me last night she thought the word came before the candidate.
