It’s very quiet and slow at work this morning so I was looking at the New Pictures of Saturn’s Battered Moons (SPACE.com/live Science.com). Saturn’s moon Tethys is a very rugged and battered moon. I couldn't help wonder if that type of terrain was near by I would love to take the hummer on it. OK back to reality

Here’s the link if you’re interested.

I've actually been there with my H2. The best part about that place is there are no trees, you don't need sheilds. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

If that was true and you have been there, it must be a sweet place! No Leaf lickers or tree huggers allowed! LOL
Man I'm bored..

Exactly! The only problem is the ride out there is a bitch. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Yeah, even at 30,000 MPH, it would probably take about 7 years. Not to mention the whole vacuum of space thing, or asteriods. Though, I think I've seen footage of an H2 battling it's way through an asteriod field. It did pretty well. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Use the A/C. I heard that works in no O2 areas.

I usually set the cruise control for 240,000 MPH, do the whole trip in about 8 months.
