Not Another Post About Space...

This space kick should end soon, rest assured, but before it checks out I have a Craigslist ad as mysterious as dark energy: somebody in Canada is looking to hire a suicidal astronaut. A trip to Titan, one of Saturn's many moons, sounds hot beyond all belief...right up until one gets to the bit about it being a one-way trip. Damnit, man, you have all the technical knowhow to get a man to Titan in a fantastic magical space capsule and not back? What kind of reclusive mad genius are you? The lazy, maple syrup-eating kind, that's what.

The gig pays $25,000, which is more than my current $0 annual salary. Sounds like a solid career path.
