Did anyone see Lost Land of the Volcano last night?

Bloody amazing it was, new species abound, incredible scenery and more moths than you could shake a glow stick at.

I loved the part where they found a new GIANT rat, that was completely tame as it had never seen humans, "it's like a little puppy!" they explained, much to the indignation of Musophobics across the land.

Anyway made me wonder if I'm wasting my life in this office, so what would your dream job be?

You want to be careful doing that
it can make your Warsaw.

I'm hopefully on my way to doing it.
Walking for a living.

Oooh
need to watch that. I'd recommend Last Chance to See as well. Damn, I love iPlayer! Anyone else blub at the orphaned chimps being welcomed to the wild island sanctuary in episode 2? Or am I just a big gayer?
Dream job? Back to teaching I guess, looking at Laos next year, may be on the cards.

I saw it
The big eyed furry thingy was the cutest mother I ever did see. Minus cute points for the hairy tarantula though.

*shivers*

My dream job? I'd run my own bike shop. Wheelbuilding and bike maintenence is strangely relaxing and quite zen.

I'd love to be stuck in a tiny space with a bunch of other people
with my muscles wasting away.

Unfortunately the fairly high risk of exploding before you got to space would probably mean that wouldn't happen.

Do you explosively decompress above a certain altitude?

no,
you don't explosivley decompress in space either.

Was I asking you?
No. You weren't the one worried about exploding. I was just curious as to whether Vipros had more to worry about than the rest of us.

I was referring to Nasa's fairly poor record for getting living people into space

Aw, I was hoping you were prone to ruptures.
Smug ruptures.

Sitting atop a rocket
Carrying tens of thousands of lbs of liquid oxygen, kerosene and hydrogen peroxide is the type of risk he/she was referring to.

In space, explosive decompression can happen in event of a meter strike. Contrary to popular fiction, a human can be exposed to vaccuum and survive for short periods.

Sorry Vipros!
I forgot who I was replying to mid post and thought I was replying to Mr/Ms Psychochomp!

Apologies for the gender confusion

I think you actually die of lack of oxygen
but your body quickly dries out, so you look like a very old person, with all your bodily fluids boiled away because of the very low pressure.

And a slight smell of piss.

You have to listen to the song A Day In Space by Ballboy. I think you'll love it.
