I expect a somewhat busy day due to the weekend SoCal rain. We’ve already gotten a couple of calls from folks who declined to heed our prognostications and/or advice. One was from three years ago and, as Insty says, “all is proceeding as I have foreseen”. (And no…we can’t do it for the same price we bid in late 2011.)
Mad props to SpaceX for a successful Dragon payload launch bound for the ISS, followed by landing the first stage booster upright on a floating barge!
Not perfectly; some equipment on the barge got damaged but according to the linked article, the booster itself is okay. For a first-ever attempt, that’s pretty damned impressive; moar, please!
Happy Monday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning Sven and Fatwa!
Here’s to Fatwa’s rain of feelthy lucre! Here’s to the law of supply and demand!
Teh Younger seems to be handling the recovery of 5 year old Phoebe’s body as well as can be expected. We talked about things for quite a while last night. The team members have been checking in on each other, as well. We all appreciate your thoughts and prayers.
Just taking things day-to-day. Trying to dispose of some of my parents’ estate on ebay and craigslist. Waiting for teaching jobs to open up in the spring. Looking for other work in the meantime.
Good morning on back-to-the-grind Monday. I f**king love Mondays. Really.
Monday again so soon? Buh. Feh. Gaaaaaaaaaah!
Hai Sven!

Vindication is mine; muwahahahahaha!
This just in from a friend:
A woman who is an NRA certified instructor and owns an indoor shooting range in Arkansas has declared her business to be a Muslim-free zone.
I think she makes a pretty good case for her decision at the link.

I’m not sure if it’s the unattended children or the *poo-t* that killed the thread.
