Euphemism
I was watching Apollo 13 this weekend... I was thinking of everyone's exhiliaration as they watched Neil Armstrong step on to the moon. It was sobering to think that my generation might actually have a similar moment.
I wonder if we're just so jaded now that it wouldn't seem as magical. I sure hope not.

OH PLEASE!
I´ve watched T.V. I know what is going on, give a woman a Voyager and she´ll end up lost on the other side of the galaxy calling home for help.
Then you have the ¨One way to blind a woman is to put a windshield in front of her face¨ argument...now imagine putting her at the helm of a space shuttle? My God, the ramifications could be universal! Do remember that part in Star Wars: A New Hope and Return of the Jedi? You know, the big battle station that shot a big green super lazer that was able to destroy an entire planet? Do you know how that immense power of destruction was generated? Nuclear? Fusion? Concentrated Evil?
NO!
It was generated by a million women that were driving cars and flying space ships, all colliding with each other at remarkable speeds! And what is so amazing about this, is that science has no longer deemed this as accidental behavior but a complete state of natural and intentional cause!
Remember the part where Ben Kenobi had a ¨ill spell¨ on the Millenium Falcon and Luke asked what was wrong? Remember his reply? Do ya?! ¨I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced¨. Well, the orginal screenplay he really said, ¨Holy Force-Balls, another fricken free-way accident was caused by some chick putting on her make up and a million people had said ´Pay attention to the road @#$%&´¨!
Or she´ll end up wandering away from the ship and discovering Aliens that have acid for blood and love to give people double dentured hickies before flying around with a beehive hair doo in a state of complete undress, with three pairs of breasts.
Now I know playing Femnist is fun, but this is ¨grown up time¨ and you should leave everything to us big boys to screw up and destroy.

LOL. Yeah, that is why women have cheaper car insurance! We have less accidents than men - 100% fact. We headed for a society that doesn't even need men and so everyone will be androgynous.
