Well done!

That's funny right there, don't care what any body says!

 

[Haden]

Beyond funny!!! Well done my friend!!!

If I had Bezos money no way i am sitting on top a rocket. Have more admiration for him today than ever.
I would be sitting on a 350' yacht somewhere in the world.

All the "news" outlets are gushing about the historic nature of this flight.

Don't get it. Wouldn't/shouldn't the history making flight be the FIRST to do it??

Branson did it several weeks ago, so Bezos is fastest loser in the private space race.

The video was/is funny as he!!

If I had Bezos money no way i am sitting on top a rocket...

I would.

I'm kinda happy with my life and have no form of a death-wish, but if offered the chance to go to space I'd take my chances!!

I'm looking forward to seeing the New Glenn project which will be an orbiting craft. It will all make sense if one can blast off from Texas and land 45 minutes later in Tokyo, now we are talking game changing travel.

IDK. Seems like a carnival ride to me -- 10 min and it's over. Shoot up in the air. Fall back to the ground.

Why do you think he emulated Dr. Evils penis rocket?

(And I'd be happy if it(I) lasted 1/5 that time!)

He sure said and did some stupid stuff in that news conference after… giving $100M to Van Jones?…. You have to be kidding me

 

[Carpediem44DB]

His pay off to the non white privileged masses for not having any diversity what so ever in his crew on his flight. I wonder how many carbon credits he paid to Al Gore for this transgression.

He just wanted to demonstrate appreciation for Van Jones’s communism with some capitalist cash.

Maybe space made him high which could account for his remarks which I also thought were a little off.

I have zero admiration for Jeff. I don’t like his company and how it destroys competition from small businesses. And I sure as hell don’t like how his company benefited (payoff) from COVID. The gubberment mandated shut downs and small businesses collapsed but Bezos still crammed workers into windowless warehouses.

Somehow I got into a long conversation with the ups guy at the house the other day…. My wife ordered some plants and they came in these long awkward boxes from Amazon. (Just for the record I boycotted Amazon years ago)… part of the conversation was why would you deliver this and not Amazon…. He said Amazon gives us all the pain in the ass packages… awkward, heavy or over size. Amazon/Prime keeps all the nice size packages for themselves. He really hated Amazon

Van Jones, the guy in the Fast & Furious movies? He’s rich. Why he need Bezos money?

Van Jones the communist CNN anchor… the guy is scum

[Pirate Lady]

That would explain why i never heard of him.

I think it was particularly interesting when he said his employees “paid” for this trip!!! Nice slip up.
