I did a talk yesterday with one of those headset radio mics, and all through that video I kept thinking "I want a floating microphone next time". No matter what you say, a floating microphone will hold the audience :-)
No matter what you say, anything floating around you holds the audience. If I were an astronaut, I would just spend all day to goof and play around with everything possible :)

Today I learned the ISS has baby-wipes aboard it.
I was really suprised to see them in the original package. One would think they had applied some form of vacuum sealed pressured bag or something to minimize space, or had special designed wipes with material that’s light weight. I guess not everything up there is special space stuff. Some of it is just the same stuff as in the local Grocery store.

Not just crying but legs kicking and hands trying to grab their own poo while you try and open a bag of wipes. I think you need 5 arms to handle that situation.
Haha. It's recently gotten worse at nearly 3yo, because he's much stronger and thinks playing with poo is funny. I've mastered the art of several wrestling holds, could probably go pro.

Detergents break the surface tension.
What would happen if he'd add some detergent?
