Old. Happily married. South Eastern US. Very boring. Highly opinionated, but generally unwilling to share those opinions. Value facts over opinions anyway. Only leave the house for shopping and doctors appointments. Also, our cats barf too much. Usually in my shoes or on the carpet. (The cat barf, not me.) Only been banned from BP once, but we should all have goals. Also, beekeeper. (Didn't see that one coming, did you?) I'm not sure how to save what I've written here. Fingers crossed.

Watched on Svengoolie just recently. Interesting story. Modern day Brits land on the moon and find a document from Victorian times. Once back they track down the author (now very old) in basically mental/old age care. Babbles about going to the moon a lot. The scene above is from his re-telling of the mission.

I worked on it back in the early 90s down in Houston. As much as I'm proud of it, it's a huge drag on NASA's budget. It's time to de-orbit it.

Challenge the eviction in court. You probably won't win, but it'll delay the actual eviction beyond Christmas.

True story: Boris Yeltsen was visiting NASA in Houston. As they were leaving, they drove by a grocery store. Yeltsen told the driver and escort he wanted to go in and was floored. He later remarked that this is when he realized the Cold War was lost.
