But then again I allways look young .

ok they say size doesn't matter, mmmmmmm but in the world of rockets apparently big is better, so with that in mind and the sound of the kids saying "you'll blow yourself up you dam fool" i have just placed an order for a rocket some 2 meters tall and 1 meter round, should launch up over a kilometer in hight, that is of course i don't blow my self up first,, hurry up Mr delivery man the kid in me is waiting........
