Martz Attacks!

No, it’s not a giant space nipple!  It’s my very own crater on Mars!  And it’s not some piddly little hole in the ground either—it’s a biggun!  Okay, it’s not mine—but it is named Martz after Edwin P. Martz, the astronomer who took the first colour photos of the Red Planet (named, like me and Edwin, after the Roman god of war).

I bet you don’t have your very own crater! Suckers!

No, but I do have my very own nipple. Two of ‘em in fact. I think I’ll name them both Martz.

no crater, but I do know somebody with a star. Apparently it’s not that difficult to have one named.

Nope… i have a town named after me, though. In Portugal. And my nipples are Betty & Veronica.

I think a classification of black holes beats your measly crater. Tee!

“The Kerr black hole, which is probably the most common form in nature, rotates because the star from which it was formed was rotating. When the rotating star collapses, the core continues to rotate, and this carried over to the black hole (conservation of angular momentum).”

Well that settles it.  You’ve got a bigger hole than me.

No, but I do have my very own Sucker, does that count?

Earlier today I asked a few of my blogfriends to suggest a wonderful site that I coudl visit. Patricia sent me to you. Yes, she is a wise, oh so very wise woman who apparently has TWO Martzs.

You truly do have a wonderful site RJ.
