Sighting the orbiting sky lab last night prompted the thought,
?Who will first "Clayarter" be to be selected to do throwing trials in =
Space?
Would this be the ultimate "Buzz" in attempting to the greatest degree =
of height or volume from a couple of pounds of clay.
Any nominations for Future Potters. Time to get your application in =
folks.
I told you I could reach absurd conclusions.

Oh!

That would be fun...!

Too, as the Planet Mars has been conceeded to have 'water', and we may
suppose it to have Clay as well...and it is not like our 'Space'
explorations have anything better to do...or more playful an occupation...
NASA could certainly contract out the building of an especially 'light'
Wheel...and...

I am sure some 'chamber', situated back in a re-entry vehicle's nose
thereabouts...well...could Fire it on the way home, too...get whatever
'cone' you want...

Just hope it isn't a bumpy ride...
