Hi miss Feather.

No snow yet, although the weather geeks keep promising.

2003 Space shuttle Columbia broke apart in flames over Texas, killing all 7 astronauts just 16 minutes before they were supposed to glide to ground in Florida. The astronauts included Michael P. Anderson (b.1959), David M. Brown (b.1956), Laurel Clark (b.1962), Kalpana Chawla (b.1962), Rick Husband (b.1957), William C. McCool (b.1961) and Ilan Ramon (b.1954). An explosion in the wheel well under the left wing was later suspected as the cause.

Unknown to me, the landing had been delayed one orbit, so I wasn't staring skyword at the moment. I had gone into city hall to vote on a school bond issue. When I cam out, I saw the smoke/contrails across the sky, and thought, "that's wierd looking". I tuned into the radio a moment later.

Oh, that was a horrible day. I wrote a tribute poem for them. Have you seen the poem?

My poem is published in an Anthology.

Columbia Crew is the name of the poem.

Thanks, Valin. The Western press seems in mass denial, but we know that the good guys won a big one with the Iraqi election and the bad guys were seriously damaged. There is no Iraqi "insurrection." There are a few thousand fascist thugs trying to shoot their way back into power. The Iraqi people themselves exposed the lie.

IMHO, this is the only way to deal with any of today's terrorists.

Afternoon SZonian.

IMHO, the German 88mm was the best all around gun in WWII.

LOL! They were standard equipment. As well as being loader/gunner, the commander also had to wave the white flag.

Now this is a mini poodle, one pampered, expensive, hand fed dog. I don't think leaving him out in the rain will work...(my luck he'd get sick and need to go to the vet..his last trip for his yearly shots was $165.)
