Buy Me a Present

Sure, they are pricey, but you love me, right? I mean, this is history we're talking about. I rented the first disc of the Apollo 11 series, which covers assembly, training, liftoff and travel to the moon. It's going to take me weeks just to watch that one. And they go into amazing detail. I watched six angles of the take off yesterday. Six angles! And they were all fiery. My wife was teasing me when I started, but after she saw the footage of staging she was hooked.

I need them all. From the X15 project to STS-109. To me they're like travel videos. Someday I'll walk on the moon. Even if it means eight pots of coffee, illegal substances and a vivid imagination.

P.S. If it wasn't clear, I like spacey things. I'm a geek. Duh. But I draw the line at Babylon Five. Snore.
