"I walked on your face!" -Buzz Aldrin, to the Moon
Do you watch my favorite show on television, 30 Rock? If you saw this last week's episode, you know that Tina Fey's character Liz Lemon got to meet Buzz Aldrin, who... randomly yells at the Moon.
(I'm sure this video will get taken down soon, so enjoy it while it lasts.)
Buzz is well-known for his sense of humor, good nature, and eloquence, in addition to his opinions on NASA and space exploration. But it's wonderful to see two of my favorite things in this world team up to make me laugh so hard!
Have a great weekend!

As many of you know, I'm a big Doctor Who fan. Big enough that I've grabbed all of the episodes of the new series, and its spinoffs, via BitTorrent. (I also buy them on DVD as soon as they become available.) A few folks have asked me what I think of the spinoffs. And I'm sick at home, feeling like…

Thanks for posting that clip of last week's 30 Rock with Buzz Aldrin.
I just recently have gotten TV back into my evenings, having rarely watched much in prime time, for years before, but respected associates raved about the 30Rock and so I started watching a few weeks ago..it really has proven to be an amazingly amusing piece of work. A comedy of manners for our culture, and that Buzz segment, and what leads up to it, is just so friggin'...what is the word?...excellent. Back into the darkness.
Personally I'd rather bark at it with Ozzy ;)
