Space Tourism Gets Another Passenger

Lothar+0 writes to tell us MSNBC is reporting that Daisuke Enomoto will be the next passenger to visit the international space station. Daisuke is a former executive of 'Livedoor' and creator of DICE-K who now lives in Hong Kong as a private investor. Apparently a long time self proclaimed fanboy of the Gundam anime series Daisuke says he will be dressing up as "Char Aznable" if the Russian agency will allow him to.

    And my signature finally gets some action.

    Like, every damn thing in that blurb is over my head. Dressing up as who? Dice-K? Livedoor? I saw an episode of that Gundam thing once and... let me just say it's humbling to know that billionaires have shitty taste, too.

    Let's just be grateful he isn't a Sailor Moon fan instead.
