Famous monkeys throughout history. "Monkeynauts are monkeys that were sent into space. The first monkey in sub-orbital space was a squirrel monkey called Gordo."

"Gordo was launched into space on December 13, 1958, in the nose cone of a US Army rocket. Gordo did well during the flight, but drowned in the Atlantic Ocean when the flotation device on the nose cone failed and it sank."

  • This is in reference to the Gordo link. If we could control machines with our thoughts, imagine the amount of devastation that would be caused with homicidal fantasies.
  • Get in the Hole, snow ;)
  • Aw, man! So much for my searching abilities. Thought I was in the clear on this one.
  • Snow, I am sorry to inform you that, in accordance with the patented SideDish DoublePost Retributive Procedure [2004 ed., Volume 8, Article 17(4)(f)], you must now tell us one secret.
  • what quidnunc said. and how 'bout a puppet show while we're waiting?
  • One secret, eh? Ok. I'm working on getting in shape and lose weight. I've told no one else my reasoning behind it: I want to see Machu Picchu and I want to do the hike of the Inca trail up to it instead of the bus or helicopter. Which requires me to get my butt into shape. So there you go. A secret goal.
  • That secret makes me jealous, rather than titillated :( Get back in the hole, you adventurous bastard! ;)
  • *takes out megaphone* WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN BED, SNOW? GIT YOUR LAZY BUTT UP AND GO GO GO! FIFTY LAPS OR NO BREAKFAST! *runs away*
  • *confiscates Alnedra's sidebar*
  • Will someone confiscate my sidebars? Not to mention this roll around my middle. Wait for me, Snow! *goes gallumping down the road, wheezing and waddling
  • *steals sidebar back from mct's drawer*
