I don't drink. Never developed a palette for it and I honestly think all alcohol tastes horrendous so when everyone else is having wine or something to drink, I usually end up with water.

I drink like one guiness every 6 months to a year...or those fruity girly drinks because you can't taste the alcohol. I dunno...I like things that taste good.

I hear ya. I developed a bit of a taste for beer because I like the idea of drinking beer with a meal from time to time. I think I drink all of two or three times a year.

I do have a bit of a taste for whiskey, though. Thankfully I don't have the budget to really indulge that one properly.

Beer is just plain delicious.

Remember. "Awesome" not "Alcohol Comparing" or "Argument" those aren't awesome, they have their own threads. What is awesome:

Cat naps and

Batman.

Watching this now with my two-year-old, who seems pretty interested.

Have they gone back to the cabin audio since he reported the problem with the heating?

Just came here to post this update, glad you guys are on the case.

Phew. I had to hop on the subway for an hour. Glad I got back to a computer before he jumped.

It's also on the Discovery channel right now if anyone cares.

"Item 29: Release seat belt."

Well, that was definitely awesome.

I look forward to seeing the footage from his suit cameras. I guess that wasn't being wirelessly broadcast as the capsule footage was.

It was crazy how quickly he got up to those insane speeds. With next to no air slowing him down it's just pure, relentless gravity.

I belive the guy who was reading off the checklist was Joseph Kittinger, the man who set the previous record of 102,800 feet. During that jump one of his gloves depressurized, and his hand swelled to twice its normal size.

That's quite cool. I love the close to realistic proportions, it captures that sinuey look of WW2 sailors.
