Quote:Astronomy Lecture - Alien Life & UFOs
Tuesday, March 1, 2022 from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM (PST)
Dear all,
We are excited to have you this upcoming Tuesday at the KIPAC public lecture! The in-person event will be held in the Hewlett Teaching Center, Room 200 (2nd floor) on the Stanford campus. The closest visitor parking is Via Ortega Garage (free after 4pm for pay-by-space spots on the ground level), and the closest disabled parking is along the Stanford Oval (free after 6pm unless indicated otherwise). Doors open at 6:30pm PST. You do not need to bring any physical tickets, and a volunteer will ch eck you in at the entrance. Indoor masking is still required to keep our community safe.
If you are joining us virtually, the event will be live streamed on YouTube (https://youtu.be/kJIuSU1d9Z4), and will start promptly at 7pm PST. We recommend that you use a computer or tablet to watch if you'd like to participate in the live chat and ask all the questions you have in mind!
If for any reason you can't join us live, the recording will be made permanently available to the public at the same URL after the event. For any questions or special assistance, please contact Dr. Xinnan Du at xinnandu@stanford.edu.
Thank you again for your interest in our outreach events, and we look forward to having you this Tuesday!
KIPAC Outreach Team
Cranefly again. Should be a lively affair, focusing on recent releases of Air Force footage among other things. Be there or be ... other than saucer-shaped.

Question: Is Kamela the head of Space Force? If so, she's the first woman in history to lead the Space Force. I'd think there'd be more chatter about that...

Why is TG now TV?
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm

I noticed that too
It reminds me of Cronenberg’s Videodrome.

He’s channeling Mike TV from Charlie/Chocolate Factory
“Channeling”. Get it?
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

I can't find the OP now, but DM had a post some time ago where he either complained about typos/autocorrect, or posting w/o glasses and mentioned me as "tv" (unless he was talking about someone else), so I adopted it for the month.

Turns out LCF and I will be going to the actual event at Stanford. LCF will be working the event.
And without a Mickey Mouse watch. How's that for gutsy?

Don't forget your mask...you know, the black vinyl one with the pony mane and zippered mouth.

It turned out to be pretty basic. LCF was there to take photos. That role changed a minute before it began. A blinking light on the video camera they were using signaled a low-battery warning. "But I recharged it!" said the woman in charge. Apparently something went wrong with that, and they didn't have a spare. Suddenly they wanted to switch to our camera (whose battery I recharged an hour before), a Nikon D3300 with basic video capability (shuts off after 20 minutes to protect from heat build-up). I had to come down and nurse it through those occurrences. Not certain how the finished product came out, or what the viewing experience was like.
I got complements afterwards, for the pony mane and zippered mouth.

Great save
And compliments well deserved. That mane is so luxurious. Makes you want to pull and yank it. So yankable.
