A word about breakfast (OT)

[Mike & Carole Curtis]

Carole had be buy her some TANG this week. She's the only person I know who
likes it.

Carole: " You know the Astronauts drink it."

Mike: "Yeah, but they send them into space to make them drink it."

Don't forget TANG spelled backward is GNAT!

Greymuzzle time: I remember various "space candies"
that were AWFUL but they were only counting on folks
trying 'em for the first time (no repeat customers).
Kinda like Tootsie rolls but with awful texture,
terrible taste, a totally yucky experience :-(

Then it's an AT&T Teletype product!
GNAT was the General Network Access Terminal
(jokingly the Gary Nipper Advanced Terminal)
GNOME was a router-thingie,
GNOT was a smart-terminal/diskless-workstation
for the Plan 9 operating system

I think the only thing they got right was when they made astronaut ice
cream.

And GNOP was a PONG clone.
