Hate to burst all of the LOL bubbles, but Dr. Bri isn't actually a rocket scientist. He is an Astrophysicist. Astrophysics is the branch of astronomy that employs the principles of physics and chemistry "to ascertain the nature of the heavenly bodies, rather than their position in space". So in simple terms, the study of the sun, stars, galaxies etc. Whereas the common term 'rocket science' refers to Aerospace Engineering, the primary field of engineering concerned with the development of aircraft and spacecraft. It has two major and overlapping branches: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering. In simple terms, the study of propulsion and avionics. Two completely different fields. Every time I hear "rocket science", it reminds me of one of my favorite videos: www.youtube.com/watch?v=THNPmhBl-8I

Yeah well, even Dr. Bri with all his Astrophysics and Renaissance Man skills cannot overcome either British or Australian law. For this upcoming US tour, Pharaoh will be able to explore the conveniences and inconveniences of travel in the modern world, but once it comes to these rather rigid countries, Pharaoh will probably be out of luck and will have to stay home. As Q3 has pointed out, there are sufficient candidates available in Adam's circle of friends, who gladly find themselves playing house and dog sitter for a month or so. But of course it is not the same as being woken up by a gentle 'goood morning' coming from that familiar voice of Adam. I actually don't think anyone was talking about anything but this upcoming NA Tour.

No bubbles to burst, but that is quite a leap you are making there about my education and general knowledge. My comment had zero to do with Brian, astrophysics or aerospace. 'Ain't rocket science' is just a tongue in cheek phrase used to say something is not complicated.

My post had nothing to do with yours, which is why I didn't quote it. You used the colloquialism, "Its not rocket science". My post was replying to those that followed yours, using your colloquialism to create a joke about the rocket scientist that would be on tour with Adam.

My attempt at humor, which obviously did not work! LOL!
