Hi miss feather. I've been AWOL part of the day. Spiderboy had a karate tournament today, so we spent a good chunk of the morning at South Fork Ranch.

Spiderboy at the Ewing mansion.

Now how did JR dive from the balcony to the pool?

Spiderboy's "trophy"

1560 Tycho Brahe becomes interested in astronomy

From our friends at NASA, of course.


Tycho Brahe Measures the Sky
Credit: Tycho Brahes Glada V„nner

Explanation: Tycho Brahe was the most meticulous astronomical observer of his time. Brahe, who lived between 1546 and 1601, set out to solve the day's most pressing astronomical problem: to determine whether the Earth or the Sun was at the center of the Solar System. To do this Brahe and his assistants created the first major astronomical observatory where they devised and used the most accurate pre-telescopic astronomical instruments. Tycho Brahe thus compiled tables of precise measurements of the positions and brightnesses of planets and stars. Brahe never solved the Solar System problem himself - but left data so impressively accurate his assistant Johannes Kepler was able to develop definitive laws. Brahe is also remembered for witnessing a supernova in 1572, showing that the Great Comet of 1577 was not an atmospheric phenomena, and for his metal nose.

You Might Be An Engineer If...
You calculate the best patterns to mow your lawn in the least amount of time.

Afternoon Mayor.

Oblivious to my surroundings, I began to sing and dance

Everytime I do that I just come across looking really dumb. ;-)

I wonder what a jackass in Micro$oft wiped Poland out of the map of the World!

Didn't you know they own the world. The Phone Company used to own it but Microsoft took them over in a hostile takeover. So if they say no Poland..well I'm sorry you're just going to have to move.

We may be a large country and Poland a small one, but there's no difference in the love of Freedom that our both our people share. I'm am so hoping that Poland stays independant and Free so that it can prosper the way we did under the Freedom we enjoyed.

I'll be darned. She's buried where my ex-father-in-law is buried.

Can't go now, I moved to Oregon last March and don't ever plan on going back to Ohio. ;-)
