    You should have just drank your way out of the migrene...

    Astronauts go through pretty extensive training programs did you skip yours?

      I didn't even wanna drink water cause I didn't wanna have something to throw up. I'm a shoe-woman, the training isn't quiet the same as for the astronauts :D
      I think it migh have something to do with the weather change. We had +3 degrees this morning. Wait, I'll google how much it is in F.

                I have never experienced worst summer. It has been rain, hail, thunder whole time. Cold and bad weather? Yeah, summer is still here :D

                  I'll trade you that for this darn record heat and drought... although we're hoping Hurricane Isaac will change all that. It's expected to move into Arkansas late Thursday, early Friday with potential for flooding rain Friday. I'm not worried... live on top of a mountain.

                    No, thanks :-) It's so bitter that everybody gets what they already have plenty of. Nature should really find another way, cause this isn't working.
                    Why don't you come and live here? It's not so bad...

                      Primary reason... you can't play golf year round there. Secondary... I like being around my adult kids and grandchildren.

                        There has been a 4 hr block of shows on The Science Channel running right now there are 4 hrs more schedualed for tonight as far as I can tell.

                        These have been the most indepth and interesting shows on the 1960 race to the moon I have seen.

                        The last hr was the, little people, 10 of thousands of individuals who helped created these rockets and the women at playtex bra factory who created and perfected the space suits flexibility..lol.. One engineer now old and wiser... said, we didn't really realize how much the surf board builders we hired off of Seal Beach in California helped solve the problems we had no answer to.. of adhearing a foam coolant shield to the Saturn Rocket outer skin.....then he added when the surf was up these guys were unnavailable to work ..lol.

                        They also have a several hr long Niel Armstrong special tribute schedualled for Saturday night.

                            I think it is completely believable, and was done.

                            I have a telescope and I can see the lunar rover tracks...not really..lol

                            It isn't that far.

                            Hell it takes 3 days to get to Alaska from Florida in a car..piece of cake.

                                My father in law was a project manager at Boeing during the Apollo program. He said it was killer overtime. He was a P-51 mechanic during the Korean war. When he retired and moved from Seattle he threw out binders full of technical data on the Saturn V rocket, a P-51 pilots manual, and a P-51 mechanics manual. I said I would have loved to have that stuff and he said I could have had it all. I didn't know he even had it and he thought nobody would want it. Still to this day you bring up the Apollo program and he isn't real excited about talking about it. He just said he spent so much time of his life working in that program that he's still burnt on it. My wife was born in Huntsville, Alabama because he was working at the Marshall Space Center at the time. He worked in the same building as Von Braun at one time. He thought he was a smart guy but also still thought he was a Nazi who should have been sent to prison for war crimes. I think one of the biggest mistakes we made as a country was letting all those nazis in here and giving them a break because we wanted their technology.

                                My father in law loved Armstrong because he was so humble. It sounds like he was just a totally unpretentious, unegoed out person.
