Branson seems to have bought into Musk's stainless steel look....

I have tickets for a space ride in 2024. We are supposed to orbit the earth 8 times and then land. I am looking forward to shooting photos and being weightless. Barb says I have to go alone as she feels it is risky. It was quite expensive but I figure a guy only has so many chances to orbit the earth. I get to keep the space suit, too.

I got a ticket, too, but I hope we aren't on the same flight, that would be weird.

It's no good after you poop in it.

It's no good after you poop in it. That's why you wear a MAG* when you've got your space suit on. * MAG is the actual NASA acronym for Maximum Absorbancy Garment, aka "astronaut diapers." They're worn on launch and reentry, and on space walks. On space walks, they're worn under the Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment, or LCVG.

How you going to drink cocktails in a spacesuit? If you don't crap that suit on takeoff you damn sure will on re-entry. I bet Barb takes a whopping big life insurance policy out on you. Ever been weightless, crapping your suit is the least of your problems.
