The Families' Perspective?


NASA's flag at half-mast, as the countdown clock counts up.
Debris are falling as what's left of the shuttle continues to streak through the sky. Maybe you saw it blow up. You know the mission went wrong. Everyone knows it went wrong, but why?
Where is your spouse/parent? Gone in an instant.

Pray for the families.

Columbia


The Columbia, one of our space shuttles, blew up at about 9:00 AM EST on it's way back from a 16 day science mission. It looks like the astronauts on board didn't have a chance.
As the shuttle launched, something (most likely a piece of foam from the main fuel tank) fell off.
Right now very little is known. We will have to wait for a press release in about 30 minutes.

Too Much Time?

Here are a few interesting sites I've come across.

Wonka Dot Com- "another homepage dedicated to willie wonka and the chocolate factory". Their site has a transcribed script of the whole movie! It was a cool movie, but nothing all that spectacular.

Speed Trap Exchange- This site is, as the name suggests, an exchange for speed traps, and gives advice on how to get out of speed trap tickets.
I can just imagine,
Defendant: "Well... this speed trap wasn't legal."
Judge: "Were you breaking the speed limit?"
Defendant: "Uh..."


Some people have too much time on their hands.

Which OS are You?
Which OS are You?


Okay, took it again, and thought more about the questions.
I think this is a better discription of me.

OS/2 is cool, but I don't think it's accurate for me!

State of the Union

Our President took a strong stand on some tough issues in the State of the Union address last night.
He showed the threat posed by Saddam Hussein, and that we will do what is necessary to protect our liberty.
He showed the danger of biological wepons, and what we are doing to protect ourselves.
Most of all he reminded us that we are still "one nation, under God".
Bravo.

Being memory resident only(a reboot is all that is needed to clear it), the worm is almost gone.
Thanks to all the System and Network Administrators that are on the ball patching their systems.
Kind of sad to see how easy "the Internet" can be taken down.
