I know I know I am sounding like a major fanboy these days, and I am, but Whack-a-Mole asked me to post this shot. [Earthlike Planet](http://img25.imageshack.us/my.php?image=earthlikeplanetff1.jpg)

Oh it’s been like that for years, we just take out the arc welder from time to time and melt some sealant over a base of chicken wire.  
All it has to do after all is support the Uzi, I mean come on, who needs wings really? It’s space!

Any real sightseer goes to Dead End or whatever it is to the Monolith, and then over to the Eve gate in New Eden. Eifer. Pfft.

Man, even elitist about sightseeing destinations. Well next time I’m in Eifer I’ll remember not to look at the pretty scenery because I COULD be on the other side of the galaxy at the tourist trap. 😉

Don’t y’all have spreadsheets to update or numbers to crunch or something? 😃

No, the point of spreadsheets is that you input the data points and they resolve the math for you. 😉

Ah, that explains it. I’m not a number-cruncher. I’m more of a button-masher (I play WoW…).
