Space walks leave no footprints. Personally, I don't really consider it walking. It's more like swimming. It's like falling in no certain direction very slowly. Space walks require special shoes. You have to watch where you step. If you step on the sun it will mess up your shoes. Let's take a romantic space walk, just the billions of us. What do you say?
Dog the cat walked slinkily along the sidewalk, staying close to the buildings and ducking behind carts, chairs, bikes and, finally, a newspaper stand from which one could obtain, for free, a local circular detailing cultural events that were going to happen two weeks ago. Dog the cat lay under the paper stand and stared out at all the passing shoes. Being a girl, Dog the cat might be expected to have a fascination with shoes. Being a cat on the city streets, however, she was mostly terrified of shoes. As she lay there she wanted badly to leap out, teeth and claws, and latch onto the flesh exposed by a pair of scary red pumps that strolled slowly by. She even rocked forward, muscles flexed and ready, and pretended she was going to do it. In the end, however, she relaxed and yawned. Normally Dog the cat was hungry, starving even. For now, however, Dog was sleepy and satisfied thanks to a generous handout of tuna fish given to her about an hour ago by the man. The man was a busboy named Hector, but Dog the cat didn't know that. Dog the cat didn't know anyone's name, and she certainly didn't know her own. Hector had given it to her. Dog. Hector fancied himself a funny man. Had she known and understood her name and who was to blame, Dog the cat would have peed on the spot where Hector always sat waiting for her. She did not know, however, so she considered the man a friend and would often pet the palm of his hand with her back. Dog the cat went to sleep under that paper stand for almost an hour. When she woke up it was nighttime, and she set out for the alley where mice live.
Did you know that NASA, when it was designing its Mars lander, actually studied falling cats? NASA was interested in how cats seemed, almost always, to land on their feet. I just made that up. I have no idea if this is true, but it sounds like it could be true. We could totally convince people that it's true. What do you say?
Hello, friends. How are you today?
