We’ll call this a mid-day moment of zen, courtesy an astronaut with a gift for delicate candor. Or perhaps it’s a metaphor for the GOP campaign, both past and prologue with the threat of scandals streaking through the skies.
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true
Bolt out of the blue, indeed.

Excuse me while I propel myself into higher orbit.

That’s a clip I’m anxious to put behind me.

Sh-t happens!

Thank you - That was absolutely precious! And who was he? THAT IS THE KIND OF CANDIDATE I WANT FOR POTUS!!!
A man who can speak that honestly and clearly about the “3rd rail” of the human condition, is just what we need to flush the crap out of Washington DC …may God allow the politicians to disappear in a flash across the night sky.

Honestly just a few minutes ago I was thinking “Bryan hasn’t posted much lately. Sure he covered the two daughters “honor” murder by their dad but he’s been quiet other than that.”
Thanks for not being quiet. It was a good laugh.

So they’re just a high tech version of Zoo Monkeys!

Since he’s talking about a shooting star, this might be a more appropriate song.

That’s it NASA, give those kids another CRAPPY view of this world.

I wonder if shooting crap stars burn a different color than actual meteorites.

i could swear frylock invented this same toilet on ATHF and if memory serves me it pulled carls skin right off when he flushed it

Now we know what Bryan was doing while employed at NASA…

That astronaut would be Col. Chris A. Hadfield, this Canadian’s favorite fellow Canadian.

Just make sure you’re out of reach when sh*t hits the Van Allen belt.

They should let the Mythbusters onto the space station.

P.S. Prolly not a safe idea, but still.
