I find it rather remarkable the number of former scouts that were part of the manned space program. I find it a bit of a morbid honor to know that Eagle Scouts were part of each major catastrophe that occurred. (Apollo 1 [Roger Chaffee], Apollo 13 [Jim Lovell], Challenger [Ellison Onizuka], and Columbia [William McCool]).
I know there are some people who hate the Boy Scouts for various reasons and love throwing about the serial killer Eagle Scouts but one thing we do see time and time again is that Eagle Scouts do typically live up to the expectations and can probably be found in disproportionate numbers in high calling fields.
NASA serves as a prime example of this.
The Boy Scouts recently had their 2,000,000th Eagle Scout (in the history of the organization). There's no way to tell how many of those Eagle Scouts are alive and currently residing the the US. With a current US population of 307 million estimate that means the total number of Eagle Scouts is 0.65% of the current US population. It's a crappy comparison but it also serves as a ceiling if every Eagle Scout was still alive.
39 astronauts of 312 in NASA's history have been Eagle Scouts. 12.5% 2 astronauts of 12 that walked on the moon have been Eagle Scouts. 16.6% [Neil Armstrong Apollo 11, Charles M. Duke Jr Apollo 16] 3 astronauts of the 17 that have died in the manned space program have been Eagle Scouts. 17.6%
He wasn't even an Eagle Scout at the time. He earned that later. Can you imagine if he was an Eagle Scout? I bet you he either would have figured out some awesome new method for nuclear power generation or would have died in the process as so many Eagle Scouts seem to do in the name of progress (Roger Chaffee, Ellison Onizuka, William McCool).

They're supposed to ingest it so they make sure they don't have time to acquire calories from food.
Unfortunately you need 31 pieces of flair.
However if you would like to experience the purifying flames of 31 flares I believe we can work that out. Good luck on experiencing all 31.
The DOW gained 400 pts today. It's only down 200 from opening yesterday.
Everything I learned about creating worlds and being God I learned from Populous, Black and White, and Spore.
Nothing screams God like picking up a flaming pieces of poop and hurling them at a village that does not worship me.

Who let Keanu Reeves on Slashdot?
Come on. Speak up. I promise I will give you 10 seconds to run before the lynch mob starts.
We have our own LEGO machines to combat against the ones they send.
I can tell you exceeded those sepcific concentrations.

And time.
If you walk into a bookstore you might find a single copy of Common Sense in the US History section.
You could also find Common Sense at your local library and I bet you can order it online from Amazon for $6.66.
Is it the full name or just the last name of McCool?

Mr Rogers is a terrorist!

How much land?
What's the asking price?
How many neighbors are also looking to sell their land?
Are they asking for comparable prices?
I can help but think this is sarcasm but we've known this is the case for awhile now.
So there's only 96 people that know about it?
I would prefer a second source. After all, Kevin Smith is a prick.
Well you've got to be fucked by something? Why not fuck yourself with that dildo you just printed?
A bit more, actually. Somewhere around 61.82. I got 61.82 but that was with round up to the 100ths decimal after each step and using 3.14 for pi.
I saw Kung Fu Hustle and Ong Bak at my college's theater. Twas awesome without all the inconsiderate SOBs around.
Die Hard was Bruce Willis.
It's kind of like how Pierce Brosnan playing Bond doesn't make sense.
