Looks to me as if they need a bit of compost..

Oh, boy, did you know that there is a company called Mars One that is recruiting people (height between 5’2″ and 6’2″, over 18) to populate MARS?

Mama and others think it’s going to be a long, long time before that happens but one of those applicants stated that he saw the moon landing as a one-year-old and his mother couldn’t tear him away from the TV. It’s sort of like the cello player, Jacqueline du Pré, who, when she frist saw a cello at four years old for the first time said to her mother, “THAT”, pointing with her little finger. “I want to do that.”

And so she did.

Who knows if Mars will one day be our outer colony—everyone in space suits and trying to extract water from Mars’ frozen surface? Mama and I like to think about other planets and other places to discover and travel to and perhaps live on, but I’m pretty sure mama thinks about it much more than I.

And I’m pretty ticked off, too, because Mars One has said in their specifications that there will be NO ANIMALS in this project, which everyone knows means NO KITTIES.

Hrumph! Plus that looks like one helluva sandbox…

Let ’em go to Mars while I watch on TV. Maybe the show’ll be in 3D and it’ll feel as if we’re there anyway…

Plus I’m not 5’2″. Never was. Never will be.

Get out your tape measure…

Be thankful there will be no kitties or other animals except humans going to Mars. Every single animal sent into space has either died horribly, gone insane from fear or died on impact when they returned to earth. Ghastly.

We say, leave the other planets alone

We’re disappointed, Loulou. We can’t believe you’re not 5’2″. You seem so larger than life. But it’s okay to be short. We still love you. 🙂
