Coffee Talk

I get just a little time with Cole each morning before she goes off to work for the day. This morning while she waited for her coffee to brew she was reading emails, and instagram, and we had this discussion.

Cole: Don't post that picture you can see my panty line, my panty line is too personal.

Me: Sorry, it's already posted.

Cole: What if this Kepler-22b planet is really just heaven.

Me: Huh?

Cole: You know, what if it's heaven?

Me: Like God thought, I'll just put it way out here, 600 light years away, no way these ding dongs will ever find it?!

Cole: Yeah, and now here we are trying to figure out how to get there. Like we come along and bring the virus.

Me: What virus?

Cole: Us. We're the virus. Like you know if we figured out that we discovered heaven, someone would decide to go and invade it.

Me: This sounds like a movie.

Cole: Yeah, a good movie.

Me: Like we would be trying to get into heaven alive?

Cole: Sci-Fi

I thought sharing this morning conversation here, might give everyone something to talk about today. Kepler-22b throw that around the water cooler. It's a fun one.

@Paolo- I thought it was a year where not much happens.

I was always more into GJ 1214b. Nice and warm, and a lot more space for humans to ruin:

Awesome. I want to have coffee with Cole too.

And great minds think alike: reminds me of Ray Bradbury's "Mars is Heaven".

I would totally go see that movie!

Check out any of Ray Bradbury's books. Cole's idea is eerily close to short stories in "The Illustrated Man" (1951)

If I could reach your cheeks, I'd be pinching them.
