Bigtime space geek over here (probably not all that surprising, hm?) so I'm really looking forward to this! 

The Curiosity rover will be livetweeting her landing, for the interested.  @MarsCuriosity.

Lowered it down with a rope and didn't even wave out the hatch. Slim Pickens road a nuke all the way down on Moscow,wavin' his hat,letting out a war whoop,and you can't even wave out the hatch? You're somethin',Fansome!

Have you heard about the image the thing spotted on the horizon?The image seems to show that Al left a little organic materiel for future scientists to ponder.

A Fuddruckers man like Al, stuck on Mars with only a McDonalds?

Boy,is Houston going to get a lecture when Major Al calls back to ground control.

Actually, I was kind of hoping for an In-N-Out.

New canals have been discovered on Mars. They seem to spell out a message,in what seems to be the Roman alphabet, "AL F IZ GERT".

The NSA is hard at work on this anomoly,and what,if any intelligence could be behind it.
