I love planetariums they are such surreal and peaceful places. If you have never been you also need to go to the Museum of Science in Boston and see the Indoor Lightening show. My other fav place is the Exploratorium and the Lawrence Livermore museum in Bezerkly. Of course the most impressive places are the Smithsonians. I was back there two years ago. I swear I could live in those places especially the Air and Space Smithsonian.~DokterKennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08460323110926747328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254153824379805831.post-24748621214109977982009-01-02T16:36:00.000-08:002009-01-02T16:36:00.000-08:00I absolutely love The Life Aquatic with Steve Ziss...I absolutely love The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. We( hubby and I)took the girls to an awesomely empty theater to watch this awesome flic and bought it as soon as possible. Definitely a favorite of ours-the soundtrack, iconic uniforms, the cut-a-way ship and more. The acting, the actors, well the list goes on and on. I thought we were the only people in the universe who love this movie.

Yes, I've seen all the movies - even the bad ones. I have been known to go to IMAX movies here by myself, so I know I would love the planetarium.<BR/><BR/>You mention Space Oddity - I love that song and I think it speaks a lot to the sense of isolation we have in modern times. But, a friend of mine does that song mixed with Rocket Man. I love it.<BR/><BR/>And the Alien movies scared the bejesus out of me. I can remember having to go see Aliens2 in my women's studies class. The assignment was to write an essay about how and why the women characters in that movie were stronger than the male characters.<BR/><BR/>whew...a lotCharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03851293154388793520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254153824379805831.post-73318448590795277322009-01-02T10:33:00.000-08:002009-01-02T10:33:00.000-08:00happy new yearI WANT GO TO THEREhappy new year<BR/>I WANT GO TO THEREDerekSmallshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11142958107255603213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254153824379805831.post-75631731436837601522009-01-02T09:30:00.000-08:002009-01-02T09:30:00.000-08:00Thanks for the wild ride...beginning for me at abo...Thanks for the wild ride...beginning for me at about 6 years old at that same planetarium...and ending with almost forgotten song and the topper, lighting a remembered cigarette and guitar and voice...to set last night's dreams!

So my thing! So!<BR/>I love sciency things also. Museums are my weak point. Air and Space in Washington made my heart go pitter pat.<BR/>Loved Aliens. And Sigourney. Maybe it is her voice. Maybe she likes to be the outerspace narrator babe. Maybe it pays well!<BR/>I am not entirely sure, but I think I sat beside Lance Henrikson at the All My Sons show in NYC last month. I kept looking at him and wondering. We chatted. I didn't have the heart to ask him if he had been ripped in half by an outerworldly creature in Alien. Somehow that may have been slightly ego deflating. But I still wonder.....<BR/>Okay done. Sorry bout that ramble!<BR/>Love you!!!!<BR/>xoxoxoGillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08845512494417503198noreply@blogger.com
