jesshartleyStolen from about half my friends-list:
Everyone has things they blog about.
Everyone has things they don't blog about.
Some of us rarely blog.
Challenge me out of my comfort zone by asking me about something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on lima beans, favorite type of underwear, favorite classical artist, etc.
Re-post in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other! I'll do my best to answer the questions publicly, although I reserve the right to be less than 100% candid depending on the topic.

Re: Okay ...
Date: 2008-03-12 06:08 pm (UTC)The original plan for the Cassini probe was that they were going to fly her as close to Enceladus as some 25 km - on Earth, this'd be inside the atmosphere, but on Enceladus it's probably still hardish vacuum at that height from the surface.
As it is, NASA bottled out, and now they're talking about 50 km; either way, the course takes Cassini through one of that moon's mysterious vapour plumes:
In one episode of The Flintstones, when the Rubbles' home was flooded (Fred again!) Barney and Betty, the prehistoric abductees, were forced to move into Fred and Wilma's. Fred and Barney slept on the chair and the couch, of course ... but (quite innocently, I might add) Wilma and Betty declared that they were going to share Fred's marital bed - a comment that had me acquire a sudden newfound interest in their Antediluvian antics.
As for whether they continued swinging post-children ... it was probably a combination of peer pressure and necessity: with the onset of global cooling and encroaching glaciation, the citizens of Bedrock were starting to get desperate towards the end. Fossil evidence shows that food was getting so scarce they were forced to kill and eat their own washing machines.
