    So....anyone want to live on Mars? Only costs $38!

    Yup, this is a serious thread. In the first few days alone, for a $38 application fee, you could be in with the chance of living on Mars, one of the four lucky chosen to be flown out there by 2023, as a part of "Mars One". It is, however, presumed that once you arrive, you probably won't be going back. Ever. The website is here.

    From the looks of things though, they seem to be chosing the four people to go to Mars...by having a reality TV show with people phoning in too vote.

    Why does everything have to be a damn reality show? This is silly. But I'm sure it will still be a guilty pleasure of mine, haha.

    I'm going to start taking applications to live on the Sun for $100. I will only be taking the first 100 applicants, so you better start applying now! No luggage will be necessary, except a pair of sunglasses.

    I'm sure they'll love making that decision once they're there for a few years after the excitement wears off.

    It's the "not getting back to Earth bit" that gets me. =/

    That's how they're able to make the journey to Mars. Because they don't have to worry about making sure the rocket can fly back home

    From the looks of Mars, I'd rather just go live in the desert here. Then when I got tired of desolation, I could come home.

    I think I'll wait till we have the capability of coolness in space, i.e. Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5, ....................anybody know a good reincarnation company that's cheap?

    Maybe they could start sending prisoners that have life or worse sentences there and they could have their own society. Kind of like those Sci-Fi movies where they send prisoners to prison colony planets.

    Is it true that at one time, Australia was a prison colony? I know the first settlers in New Orleans tended to be thieves and prostitutes because nobody else wanted to live in a swamp.

    I thought you were already a martian? And unfortunatly, no. I yet to come across a cheap reincarnation company that doesn't turn you into one of the freaky walking skeleton things.

    They used to do that with Australia, right? Just get rid of them, I guess.
