I am slowly (and somewhat reluctantly if you ask my wife) painting the middle bedroom. We have painted the walls in there a couple of times before, but never the ceiling. I decided to change that this time and give the ceiling a nice fresh coat of pink paint. But first, I had to prepare the surface, and that meant scraping off the seemingly thousands of glow in the dark stars we had stuck up there several years ago.
* Bowman actually says, “The thing’s hollow ? it goes on forever ? and ? oh my God! ? It’s full of stars!”, but not in the movie 2001, its in the novel by Arthur C. Clarke and does make it into 2010, the sequel.
Started up, went down, still down.

You had put glow in the dark stars on the ceiling? Some things are better left untold… 🙂
2001 was a good movie, but I could never understand it. 2010 was ok. I also read 2061, but can’t remember much about it. Somewhere along I just fell off Clarke’s train…
We actually had them in all three bedrooms in the house. They are there at my wife’s suggestion, who once she removes her glasses to go to sleep, can’t see them, so go figure.
My Aurthur C. Clarke experience roughly parallels yours and I think it was 2061 that knocked me off the train.
