Default Intent to Flood - NASA Project Mercury

DON'T!

This weekend I intend on posting 334 images (324 MB) of NASA's Mercury
Program. The quality of the images varies, but they are the high
resolution I have been able to find

I intend on utilizing the RAR and PAR method. While some may prefer
JPG, I have chosen not to post JPGs. As some files are very large
untilizing RAR & PARs allow the reciever to repair any fragment files.
There will be 19 RAR files and 13 PAR (40%) PAR files for a total size
of 380 MB

Enjoy

Needless to say, the ng is delighted, & it will take us about 2
weeks to get the full calendar

Why not post in jpg. You would have a lot less gripe about the rar
files. I also noticed a lot of bad filesin rar and having to repost
them.

a.b.pics.artpics

it's for illustrative art & the ng prefers that
photos be posted to a.b.pics.misc


That would be alt.binaries.pics.artpics for the first one. I guess my ISP
does not get the second one.

Jpegs individually posted would be preferred, so I can see what they
are like before getting the whole lot, but they will be appreciated
either way.

Ignore the moaners.

In a transatlantic flight, a plane passes through a severe storm. The turbulence is awful, and things go from bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning. One woman in particular loses it. Screaming, she stands up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die!" she wails. Then she yells, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on Earth to be memorable! I've had plenty of sex in my life, but no one has ever made me really feel like a woman! Well, I've had it! Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN??" For a moment there is silence. Everyone has forgotten their own peril, and they all stare, riveted, at the desperate woman in the front of the plane. Then,
a man stands up in the rear of the plane. "I can make you feel like a woman," he says. He's gorgeous. Tall, built, with long, flowing black hair and jet black eyes, he starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time. No one moves. The woman is breathing heavily in anticipation as the stranger approaches. He removes his shirt. Muscles ripple across his chest as he reaches her. He extends the arm holding his shirt to the trembling
woman, and whispers: "Iron this."

That's because the people shouting the loudest are the objectors.
