if you believe they put a man on the moon...

no this isn't going to be a discourse on conspiracy theories about whether the moon landing actually happened, and no this isn't going to be talking about R.E.M. or andy kaufman. we're actually talking about the space race.

this article (via alan over at cosmic log) is exactly what i have been thinking about as far as where the new space race is going to go. if you don't want to read the article, is from the former chairman of the house board on technology and the author is positing that based on his observations and knowledge, the chinese will have a permanent presence on the moon with the next decade! holy crap! check it out

in other non space related news, its sunday, i slept through church and i am going to spend today cleaning my room and reading and stuff. got to go to a great show at the last minute last night. my roommate nate rose got a couple of free tickets to see the flaming lips with the starlight mints and liz phair at the paladium. this show was by every sense of the word spectacular! the stage show was absolutely insane, a situationist dream with fury suited animal costumes, balloons the size of vw bugs, and all sorts of crazy video images in the background. i was blown away by it.

after the show rose and i hung out for a bit at a place called 66 on sunset and had a couple of rounds. it was good times. we got hit on lots. then we went to denny's. we finished off the night, by being stuck in 1am bumper to bumper traffic on the 101 talking to hot girls in a limo coming back from prom, all the while listing to tom waits really loud. what a night.

ps. there were also a few celeb sightings. i got to watch heather graham and juliette lewis both be groped by female security officers, right next to use in line. heather graham is hot!

these are important!--->
