More Delightful Randomness

So Steve and I were watching the movie Alien today which started inevitable conversations... first topic: Self Destruct Options. You see this offered on so many movies but not in real life. So next time I buy a new car I plan on asking the sales guy if they offer a self destruct option. I can imagine why this may be a bad idea initially (think numerous cars exploding on the highway). But I have an answer: Aliens. The self destruct option will be extremely useful in the case of an unfriendly alien attack on the family minivan. Think about it. This may catch on. Also this can lead to other uses : Carnies, backseat drivers, cousins that you're not particularly attached to... For a not so definitive choice the ejection seat is always an option; albeit played out.

Second thought posed of the night came from the kitty. The cat Jones is awesome. That cat knew all. I mean if that one guy paid attention he may have been in a better place. Also, in the end kitty was on display for the Alien like a Kitty buffet under glass. But no dice; not impressed. Key to survival in space? Cat. That and guns. Mainly Guns.

I think we need to find a hobby that catches and holds our attention... amateur time travel is always an option.

LOL...remember that cats also guard against resurrected evil mummies.

That and of course mice...

This is true. See? Cats are essential for survival against the undead and certain visitors from outer space.
