Just got the above in my in box, email-wise.

Yeah, I'm a geek/dork/nerd/flake. But I've always been fascinated by space exploration.

I should've applied. Damn. My artist name is Lynk. Lynx spacecraft. Lynk's spacecraft. I don't feel at home on Earth.

I DONE GOOFED.

Edit, i also have a fridge named the kelvinator and a microwave named Spacemaster.

My degrees are in Biological Science and Engineering, along with my Masters in Developmental Neurobiology. I actually took the application seriously!

I'm too old and beaten down to actually be chosen, but the process is fun!

I miss his smiley avatar

*slightly off topic*

It's actually a reference to Legend of Zelda, but stands for Learn Your New Knowledge. But the concept I try to convey is like that in Ocarina of Time, where Link dies falling down the Deku Tree before he can begin his quest. Also, Link has to die again to Ganon at the end, or the future generation Links can't save the world for some reason.

Basically, metaphorical deaths in real life can advance a person greatly in completing their quest, but the ganon we must face is the grim reaper. On the other side, however, there is no reaper, for we are already dead, whether there be an afterlife or just decomposition.

Also, the many links, and zeldas, and same people (doppelgangers in different generations)almost directly correlates to real life. A lot of people I see or know look exactly how like celebrities or famous people like scientists, doctors, and even criminals on Cops looked.

I'm trying to capture second chances, legacy, reincarnation all in one name.

*back on topic*

I honestly wish you luck in going, but know that if you make it, it's going to be extremely hard to survive, even if they do manage to plant trees and food.

So you click on the links and it takes you through some side server where they hack your computer. Well, you want an out of this world experience, you might as well go there broke. You can't spend any money on Mars anyway.

This thread made me want to go out and buy a Mars candy bar. I haven't had one in a couple of years. Damn you Beezzer, got to drive to town now.

Good luck Beezer!!!

I hope you win!! How awesome would it be to go to space!!! Ahhhh!!!

a reply to: rickymouse

hahahahaha. . . oops. I haven't hit the links yet.

Okay, I hit the link and it took me to the site.

????

My wife is going to kill me when she finds out I blew 50 dollars on a t-shirt!

lol..."round trip".

Now that they have your email they are going to sell it.
You'll get a round trip to nowhere and they get a new jet ski.

Enjoy the dream until life crushes it.
Or to put it another way.
Life is what happens when you had other plans.

a reply to: Lynk3

I was calling you cheesy for your nicknames of your refrigerator and microwave....Oh well....I figured you would take that the wrong way...

I miss cheesy too! I haven't seen any threads of his anytime recently at all! It was like 8 months ago he just disappeared off the map!! Arken did take over on the Mars threads but I haven't seen much from him on Mars stuff either....They probably got sick of every thread hearing their pics were of rocks...True or not I am sure it got annoying for them.

ETA: Well holy $hit, this entire post was off topic....Sorry Beezer!

Sorta on topic --- Just because you are elderly doesn't mean you won't be accepted!! "hire smart, hire vets"....Let's use your vet card in a different way here....lol

I was only five minutes into my wake-up process when I wrote that lol. I apologize. The appliances were in the house when we moved in. My real name is Kevin so I always wanted to peel off the v in Kelvinator lol. But then I learned about kelvins in science class.

We might actually be moving so if you guys figure out how to have electricity on Mars, i'll give you the SpaceMaster microwave to use while in Space. Master. Teehee.
