I was city hall mailroom clerk in a small midwestern city. About 90% of my job was signing for packages from animal control. They were almost always rabies specimens, which included dead bats, or the heads of dogs or cats. The specimins always in a cardboard box, but there were stickers on the outside saying, "Rabies - danger blah blah", and what animal. There was a small dorm fridge that I got to place these in until someone would stop by with a cooler for pickup. (Sidenote: I managed to get fired from this job on 9/12/2001 for showing up late twice. I joined the air force the same day.)

I was a sophomore in 1992, taking a midterm test in my American History class. For extra credit, we were told to name the presidents, from Washington to Polk. Next to the pencil sharpener: a poster with all 42 (at the time) presidents. I sharpened my pencil like 4 times during that test. Terrible luck with breaking my lead. Sadly, the poster was taken down shortly after (I was probably too obvious), and I was forced to memorize the presidents from Washington to GRANT for the final. I still remember the mnemonic device I used for those presidents.

Okay, what everyone needs to do, since they regret not doing this when they were 12, is to create a fairly open script and do one of these for when you're 20 years older. Do like an hour of dialog (so it can be trimmed down to something fairly cogent of, say, 3-5 minutes), and do about a dozen of these over the course of a year. The one thing I regretted after watching this video is, for how amazing it is, there will probably not be a sequel.

I've had a number of painful papercuts dealing with cardboard boxes as a warehouse employee. I can't see how cardboard furniture for children is a good idea.

Their final victory entails them finally acquiring a nuke...and then its rocket accidentally exploding on the launchpad, irradiating its citizens, half of Asia, Guam, Alaska, Hawaii, and the west coast of the USA in the process.

I say send him up, sell advertising on the rockets like they do with NASCAR, do anything to generate interest in the space program, and the means to pay for it. We need to get moving!
