It’s summer, and the kids are getting ready to go back to
school, if they haven’t already. I hope
you’ve all had time to rest and relax, and go on a nice vacation. If you haven’t, though… well, there’s still a
little time, and I have just the destination.

Pack up the kids, pack up the SUV, pack up the rocket ship,
and take a vacation in space!

Well, okay. You can’t
go there next week. You probably won’t
be able to go there until 2012, but for the low low price of $4 million for a
3-day stay, you’ll be able to live la vita cosmonaut without all the hassle of
bribing the Russians to go up and hang out on boring old Mir.

Just check out the activities you’ll get to do:

The hotel, "Galactic Suites," will allow adventurous
travelers to enjoy a spectacular starry view from their hotel rooms, see the
Sun rise 15 times a day and take part in scientific experiments while they’re not
using Velcro suits to crawl around their pod-room walls.

Just think about it, all the fun of living in space without
all the pesky stuff like ‘spending years in training,’ ‘getting a Ph.D.,’ and ‘logging
thousands of hours of flight time.’ Finally, mankind’s oldest dream is within reach of anyone, provided they
can find a few million dollars.  I think
I’ll start saving up now.
