Maybe Alembic really could be out of this world!
« on: October 30, 2017, 02:15:33 PM »
I was watching a discussion programme today on TV and they mentioned that NASA are registering names to put on a chip on the next Mars Mission and the closing date for names is 1st November so I decided to get my name registered as I could never get on a real space flight so having my name on another planet would be really neat. Not sure who's gonna be able to read the chip to see my name though but still.


Now if Mica would register the alembic name on the chip, then the alembic brand name would be truly out of this world. ;-)


Ends on November 1st.

That's much a much better idea than the one of Chairface Chippendale  ::)

 Alembic's quarterly earnings will now reflect the cost of shipping instruments to Mars!!! Must keep up with the times you know!!! ;D

Another bonus; average Series I would only weigh about 4 lbs on Mars... on the other hand, shipping back to Santa Rosa is going to be outrageou$.   ;D

I bet UPS and FedEx will be soon shipping stuff to Mars also. Imagine when they lose your bass and you get the message, “sorry, we lost your bass. It appears to be stuck in transit in Uranus”  (just some Halloween humor here)

That's OK...as long as it doesn't encounter any Klingons...

This is an all-inclusive site.  We believe in diversity.  No discrimination will be tolerated.  With that in mind, I take umbrage, sir, with your uncalled for, thoughtless, and insulting disparagement of Klingons!  What did a Klingon ever do to you?  Klingon lives matter!

Live long and prosper.

hehehehe

Bill, tgo
