possibly astroboy. an anime show that is extremely vital in the history of anime. Astro Boy has been a constant figure in Japan and around the world. basically the first anime show (debatable), and also the first anime show to gain notority worldwide (although speed racer would later come and blow astro boy away with its crazzy ass success). about a robot kid made by some doctor. a mix basically of superman and pinochhio. lots of stuff here. created by Osama Tezaku, the father of anime.
Soaring high in the sky, he may be small but only in size... something something... astro boy!

Comes from an episode of 'That's So Raven' in which Devon (pronounced deh-vawn) is obsessed with some sci-fi TV show, much like Star Wars, only, no Leia in the metal bikini.
Devon: Astro Blasto!
Imaginary White Guy: Shut the fuck up.
An astro kiss is the result of someone inadvertently sitting their βassβ too far back on the toilet leaving a brown βkissβ mark in the outer-space of the seat.
I was going to use the gas station restroom until I saw that the last person left an astro kiss.
A great but underachieving baseball team that makes it to the postseason nearly every year and will eventually win the World Series (knock on wood). They are one of the classiest teams ever and have many future hall of famers on their team with Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio, Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, etc. They assembled one of the best postseason pitching rotations in baseball history in 2005 with Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, Roy Oswalt and don't forget the decent Brandon Backe.
I have and always will live and die with the Houston Astros.
