Friday Five. (swiped from eryx_uk )

5. Did you follow NASA's latest space mission?

Only the audioblog of one of the astronauts and a lot of the pretty pictures. I didn't follow it too deeply. I got a sense of false drama about the recovery window, which was a little pesky.

4. If you could launch a politician into space, and perhaps they wouldn't make it back, who would it be?

Can't we put 'em all on a big space ark? If I had to pick one, I'd go bakc in time, and put GWB senior on one before current prez was concieved.

3. Do you believe in an after-life?

I think it's pretty unlikely, but it's a nice thought. I also have severe doubts about ghosts, angels and reincarnation.

2. If there really are aliens, what do you think they look like?

Hopefully some form that allows them to communicate with us, and makes it easy for us to use alien technology. (No doubt when they come to enslave us/eat us/ want to make "friends" with our children/ etc, we'll need to turn them against themselves, because I doubt a computer virus from a powerbook or avian flu will do the job.)

1. Have you ever been to Europe?

Yupperdoodle! Germany and Spain are nifty, but I'd probably like to visit Scotland next go 'round.
