rocket boy...

Our 2 year-old son has decided he wants a rocket for Xmas. This kid can't even talk, but when he sat on Santa's lap, he made a rocket noise. So... we thought we were done shopping... now we have to buy a rocket.

I went to Toys 'R' Us today on my lunch hour, and the only two (age appropriate) rocket toys of any kind I could find were a Buzz Lightyear rocket and a Rescue Heroes Spaceship. The Rescue Heroes thing was ok... but the astronaut guy was really rude. He'd say things like - "Analyze THIS data!"

What the hell is that all about??

Anyway, you can tell that the space program is not what it used to be. Nobody wants to pretend to be an astronaut anymore.
