5. How cool!
Gravity has been one of the biggest obstacles for him for many many years. It must be a great freedom ride!

7. I think Dr. Hawking's "moves" were far, far superior to the lurching disgrace that's Our Smirk.
The Chimperor's pathological narcissism was on full display. Sadly, an emotionally adolescent nation fails to note and appreciate his pathology.
