back to article LOHAN chap hooks up with busty stratominx in cosmic pleasure cruise

The Register's Low Orbit Helium Assisted Navigator (LOHAN) team has expressed its shock and dismay that member Dave Akerman has chosen to play away from home with a lads' mag busty stratominx. Dave's a veteran of countless balloon launches, and is regularly approached by people in bars asking to be "taken to heaven and back". …

    It does lower the tone somewhat...

    Mr. Akerman, please give your full attention to getting that bloody plane launched, before we all die of age related degenerative disorders.

    And have a beer to focus your mind.

    ;o)

    More tittilation is clearly the way to go...

    LOHAN and PARIS attract a certain type of person, but we should not forget the ... more straightforward...types. Though I did think the video was rather vulgar (with the sponsors logo so prominent, rather than just their avatar).

    I can forgive Dave for succumbing and for swinging both ways, as long as he doesn't get too in my face with it. Let us embrace all like-minded folk and come together in one glorious thrust for mankind*

        "Methinks El Reg, LOHAN SPB has Treasures beyond Measures. "

        LOHAN is just the start, she can take you to the edge of Heaven but no further.

        Following the huge airborne womb launch, in the coming years we will need some sort of phallic device to burst through the boundary and in to the void.

        Dana, is that you?! Where the hell have you been since Dispatches?

    I'm not sure that this is what someone was thinking when they asked for a "around the world"... or a "send me howling to the moon".

    On a more serious note, I am curious. Did the Bulgarian Airbags (even though they were just photos) provide extra lift? Or were they there in case of a water landing?

  5. Cliff

    On a more important note

    Will our playmonoaut do some space demos for us like Chris Hadfield did - and maybe record his own version of 'Star Trekking' for us back on earth?

    It was all good fun but ....

    ... the project needs a theme song or 'anthem'. Can aynone compose/sing one and record it on You Tube (or similar)? I suggest the El Reg board set up a competition and publish the links to competing entries in about a month's time, then we can vote on them.

    Feel free to downvote me for saying this*, but much as I enjoy looking at cleavage, especially when I have a good excuse to do so, I thought the Zoo girls ruined the images produced by the cameras on that flight.

    * I'd downvote myself if I could.

    1. Elmer Phud

      I've done it for you - whether I agree or not is a seperate matter, just wanted to help out.

      But, as there are things like thousands of dogs and cats registered on Facebook, shirley you could adopt a similar approach and be yet another AC. (being a cat or dog is optional)

    Think that this is one giant bust for mankind and I welcome it.

    Dumbing down

    Unfortunately this will send entirely the wrong message to the younger generation. They need to be told that a thin atmosphere causes rapid evaporation of sweat from skin and resulting rapid chilling, so it really is not practical to visit the upper stratosphere dressed like that.

    Lack of attention to basic science means that Zoo risks losing all credibility as an academic journal.

    Never mind all the jealousy and bitching in the previous comments, and indeed to a degree in the article itself.

    Has anybody noticed that a female driver managed to land on grass and not up a tree ?

    Perhaps the SPB should reconsider their recruitment needs. But have a beer anyway.

    Sad episisode in this saga that's ruined it for me

    Oh dear, what caused this to happen (apart from the amount of sponsorship cash they coughed up, which hasn't been disclosed, but of course everyone will become a whore for a certain amount of cash).

    So what was a cool project in the grand tradition of garden shed boffinry with the added attraction of utilising the Raspberry Pi that could have inspired thousands of kids (of all ages) around the country has now suddenly become a "Look! Tits in Spaaaaaace!" sniggerfest for idiots who buy that remarkable work of journalism that is now sponsoring it.

    I enjoyed a lot of the humour so far in this venture, but this just looks desperate and tacky.

      Better desperate and tacky than desperate and sticky; no?

      The Zoo flight has nothing to do with LOHAN, apart from Dave's participation, and we certainly have no financial relationship with the mag. Lighten up, it's just a bit of fun.
