if we had to could we build a new earth? this one has been pretty good with its orbit and rotation over the years, but i'm just wondering in case of emergency it would be nice to have another.

Good News: Yes, it is possible.

Bad News: The contract has already been granted to Halliburton.

Isn''t this why we invaded Iraq -- as a Proof-of-concept pilot project?

I just finally fixed the water pressure issue that has been plauging us since we bought this house almost 8 years ago. Yay me.

During the Nationals telecast of the game last night, Don Sutton announced that the Nats would be giving away Thomas Jefferson bobbleheads on August 4th. :shock:

Exactly what position did Thomas Jefferson play? Actually, Thomas Jefferson was baseball's very first free agent. After six years of service, he made a "declaration of independence."

Did you know that if you place a Thomas Jefferson bobblehead next to a Serena Williams bobblehead in nine months you will have a Derek Jeter bobblehead? Little known fact.

The Supreme Court of California Monday barred athletic shoe maker Adidas from selling shoes made from kangaroo leather in California. This decision will put a real crimp in Adidas sales. Before the ban, kangaroo leather shoes were jumping off the shelves.

Holy crap, I've just been e-mailed a publicity shot of william gibson, and his hair looks nothing like it was in the 80s. For some reason, I find this profoundly shocking.

Aviation Week & Space Technology reported on its Web site that a special panel studying astronaut health found that on two occasions, astronauts were allowed to fly after flight surgeons and other astronauts warned they were so drunk they posed a safety risk.
NASA speculates the inebriated astronauts had been drinking spiked Tang. It's really sad when you need a designated driver for the Space Shuttle. I understand for the next mission NASA is going to set up a sobriety checkpoint on the moon.

Maybe she allows on open relationship because its the only way a man will stay with her is if he's allowed to get some strange.

Or just use the corner of a standard envelope - gangly but it gets the job done

I stumbled upon the MySpace of my brother in law's brother in law (no, not me). He has like 12 friends. One of them is the Cole Hamels Facts page. Neat. I didn't realize he was that much of a fan. I wonder if he posts here too?
