Nothing to see here, hell that could have been me when I worked at Goddard... just some joe random employee doing a little web surfing...

Why is a NASA employee looking at your gun pron? Because he likes it.

In the movie "Evolution" the community college volleyball coach racks a shotgun slide before going to hunt a winged dragon in a shopping mall, and makes a comment that seems apt here: "Just because I'm a teacher doesn't mean I'm a pussy."

As a nerd who has worked for the .gov before, I insist that the same applies to government researchers and NASA rocket scientists, maybe especially to rocket scientists. Because while sometimes a banana is just a banana, a rocket is something Freud never even saw.

NASA + Saiga 12 + "Porn"

I'm trying to envision a single scenario where they all fit together (like some grocery store clerks do, making comments on the things I buy. They come up with the darndest things. Last night was the one time I was hoping for one of them to do it-- I bought 80 pounds of sodium chloride, a box of Trojans, and nothing else. Alas, they had nothing to say).

Further musing: It would be cool to have a person in orbit figure out the correct firing angle [what, opposite the direction of the orbiter?] then pop off several shotgun shells, creating an artificial meteor shower. I'd pay to see that.
