A definitely nerdy moment

Post by CastAway »

So, it was my friend's birthday, and we all went to Waffle House. When I got my change back, I had a spare quarter, and my friend (the birthday one) suggested I use the quarter in the jukebox they had there. So we discuss for a little while, and eventually we decide upon "Up on the Roof" by The Drifters. So, long story short, once it starts playing, the only thing I can think of is happy memories of Space Station in the Imax theatre.

I think this pretty much confirms that I am a space nerd (not that I needed more confirmation...). What do you think?

I heard that song the other day and it reminded me of camp. It's been way to long (june 2004) and I have to go back to camp because I miss it so much.

Some one i was talking to tried to sing it the other day but he forgot the words so it didnt really remind me of space camp. :lol: He once went to space camp though so i'm sure if you translate it far enough down the line it might have reminded me of space camp in some form or another. It is pretty nerdy though... not that anything i do gives me room to talk.

Oh, man, there's SO MUCH that reminds me of Space Camp, it's not even funny.

"Up on the roof",
The Ramones "Hey, Ho, Let's Go"...

I miss the Sprocket Center SO much...
"I ride the Short Orbiter to Space!"
"HEY! HO! LETS GO!"
"Stipper! STIPPER!"

Gotta love going to school close enought to camp so that when you're done with finals you can just head over there and chill.

That would be cool to be so close to camp! If I get into the school I want to go to, I am going to be insanely far away from space camp :(

by the way... hi and Merry Christnas (or happy holidays) to everyone
