Hold on to your oxygen because the Space Station will have... a live videoconference!

So there is a bunch of hype because Paul McCartney is going into space... via videoconference. Big freakin deal!!! Oh... and another thing: Paul McCartney isn't "beaming" into the Space Station to sing them a song. There's nothing mysterious about the technology at all, so we don't have to be all 1980's about it.

Here's the real headline:

Interest in ISS waning, even the astronauts are bored. Former Beatle dispatched to liven things up. War is over, if you want it. Oops, wrong Beatle. Anyway, this is too long for a headline. How about that local sports team. The article is going to start right about... now!

So the moral of the story is... don't let me run a newspaper.
"Too late or still too soon too soon to make lots of bad love and there's no time for sorrow. Run around, run around with a hole in your head 'til tomorrow."
