Lance Bass to Continue to Plague Earth's Surface

thepooleboy writes "Looks like N'Sync member Lance Bass is NOT going to be shot into space! Yahoo News reports that Rosaviakosmos has not begun talks with Bass or MirCorp. "[Bass' flight] is just an advertising stunt, I can promise you," Spokesman Sergei Gorbunov said. "This is better advertising than he could ever pay for." Good! I'm glad that no cheezy teen pop videos will be staged on the ISS. At least not in the near future..."

I still say they should do it...

...only without the rocket.

I was starting to have flashbacks to that movie on the Disney channel "Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century" or something.

And Slashdot must be an N'Sync fan.

I hadn't heard of this at all until I just read it here.

boy band members wanted

[doubtless]

I'm actively recuiting 4 young not-so-geeky looking male to join my boyband. I wanna be a space ranger ~

[ArtDent]

I think I'd be perfect. I'm in my mid-twenties, but I can easily pass for 16.

I can't sing; I can't dance. I definately can't write songs or play any instruments. Hell, I can barely dress myself.

Where do I sign up?

ops, slashdotters are not happy with that, I got a -1 for Troll. I guess it will have to be a rock band.

I guess he was

Out of Sync with the mission goals.

i misread your post -- the $$ signs made me think of spam and it wouldn't surprise me if this was the next iteration of spam:

GET INTO SPACE NOW! FIND OUT HOW! AND EMAIL SPAM@SPAM.TLD! this is not unsolicited mail, free ink refils and pictures of teen girls included in every order!

Lance Bass careening into deep space

[Jeppe Salvesen]

(AP) Lance Bass rocked out during orbiting, and accidentally triggered an obscure mechanism that fired the propulsion system, sending him off out into deep space. Bass is still in contact with Mission Control, saying "Comrades, we have a problem" repeatedly. No comrades appear to be listening, though.

That was my dream. Now I have to find another dream.

And remember, NO SINGING!

But Commander, I just want to sing .. sing ..

STOP THAT!

You know you're a geek when you think Lance Bass is a kind of long fish.

In Space, no one can hear N'Synch. . . .

[Salgak1]

. . .and now we take you to the ISS, sometime in the future. . . .

(Lance Bass): Excuse me, Mister Astronaut, but after all this Tang(tm), I gotta whizz something awful. Where's the john up here ???

(Astronaut): Certainly.... go through that round hatch, close it, and spin the wheel. When the light turns red, press the big red button on the wall, and the door will open to the waste disposal area. . . .

(a minute goes by)

(outside view) Lance Bass's corpse floating in vacuum

And people think spending money on the ISS is a waste (evil grin)

You want to get the Earth destroyed?

[wowbagger]

Come on people, think this one through!

We are already under a strict "No Contact" ban in the Galactic Confederation - we go shooting NSync members into space and we will downgraded from "Not ready for contact" to "Dangerous - destroy immediately".

All your Bass are belong to us
