They have a small squirrel monkey who, using a crisp Nabisco wafer, coaxes the shuttle down the runway, up the stand and into position, then cruelly throws the bay door shut behind it and laughs.

I have platform envy.

So does David Bowie, come to think of it. And Gene Simmons.

Mine was acutually a quote from Barney Gumble. It was a Halloween episode of the Simpsons, they knock off King Kong. Everyone sees King Homer chained up and they gasp and Barney stands up and yells LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT PLATFORM!

We saw King Kong last week, outside on a 2200 foot screen. They have these free "movies in the park" deal near me. Anyways, the Simpson quoting was relentless. I heart my friends.(y)
