Juxtaposition of the Day


U.S. Billionaire Heads to Space Station - From The New York Times:
"There was no mention of [American billionaire and amateur space traveler Charles Simonyi's friend Martha] Stewart on [Simonyi's] blog, but Simonyi did make reference to one of the lesser-known, last-minute traditions for cosmonauts heading into space -- urinating on the tire of the bus transporting them to the launch-pad."

Did Stewart instruct Simonyi to lift his pinkie finger while urinating?
