Did you see the "Life on Mars" Truck Tour?  That was quite cool..as I
recall, there was the following:

monkeys around a tall black object (think the dimensions were 1:4:9)
martians spray painting graffiti on the side of the disco wall
a martian relieving himself on another wall of the disco
a polar bear chasing a martian
an aero-tube sled crash at an intersection

and shouldn't you power spacecraft off dead fleebnorks?

I have so many ideas for a Moonbase, and I can't work on ANY of them until I
move in two months ... grrrr.  Well, maybe I could do a cute little Moonbase
Cop Car :)

*Like, you know, if these craft were powered by dead Martians :)


actually, I was pondering something very much like this just today (I'm
working on a supermodule landing platform. it'll be part of a moonbase, but
it's something to do.), so some kind of standard for small-craft (the sort
of thing one would use to dart about a moonbase) could be neat. just make
sure it's large enough to allow pods... of course, the module is going to
have space on top for larger craft, with an elevator connecting to the main
level... or it will if I have enough parts to complete the frelling thing
*crosses fingers*

(...) Hah! I wish I had seen that ... do you know where there are pictures? Dead fleebnorks, now why did I think of that. Ooooh! Inspiration: a bunch of "space hippies" with placards that read: "No Blood for Fleebnorks!" :) Maaaaan. Now I really (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.space)
