IN HAPPY NEWS, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, I HAVE TO GO BACK TO

A STORY WE TALKED ABOUT YESTERDAY, I HAVE TO DOUBLE PUMP

I AM STILL PUMPED ABOUT ELON MUSK AND HIS COMPANY SPACEX'S

INCREDIBLE LAUNCH YESTERDAY OF THEIR ROCKET CALLED THE FALCON

THE LAUNCH WAS AMAZING TO WATCH, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE TWO BOOSTERS

ACTUALLY REENTERED THE ATMOSPHERE AND LANDED BACK AT

IT WAS THE HAPPIEST ANYBODY HAS BEEN YELLING, "LOOK, THE ROCKETS

BUT THE PART I CAN'T GET OVER IS WHEN THE ROCKET DEPLOYED A RED

TESLA CONVERTIBLE WITH A MANNEQUIN IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT,

WHEN I GOT HOME I LOOKED AT THE LIVE FEED FROM STARMAN, AND WHAT

I WASN'T PREPARED FOR WAS HOW BREATHTAKING THIS LOOKED.

IT'S SO SURREAL AND MOVING TO SEE SOMETHING THAT ORDINARY

WHOEVER BULLIED ELON MUSK IN HIGH SCHOOL, THANK YOU.

I GOTTA SAY, AMERICA'S GOT A LONG HISTORY OF SILLY SPACE

>> WE CHOOSE TO GO TO THE MOON IN THIS DECADE

AND DO THE OTHER THINGS, NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE EASY, BUT

BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE NIXON'S KEYS UP THERE.

IT'S ACTUALLY GREAT ADVERTISING FOR TESLA, WHICH SPENDS ZERO

AS ONE EXPERT PUT IT, "THE BUZZ HE CREATES WITH A STUNT LIKE

THIS IS FAR BEYOND WHAT MARKETING DOLLARS CAN BUY YOU."

TODAY, THEY SHOT THE TRIVAGO GUY INTO THE HEART OF THE SUN.

AND IT LOOKS LIKE SPACEX WILL CONTINUE IT'S MISSION OF HAVING

FUN WHILE MAKING BREAKTHROUGHS IN SPACE TRAVEL, BECAUSE ELON

MUSK IS CALLING HIS NEXT PROJECT THE "B.F.R.," WHICH STANDS FOR

I HOPE THE LAUNCH GOES WELL, BECAUSE NO NEWSMAN SHOULD EVER

HAVE TO UTTER THE WORDS, "TRAGIC NEWS ABOUT THE BIG
