My Husband Has Gay Jungle Fever

Watch Out Sidney Poitier, LOOK WHO'S COMING TO DINNER!  My husband and his gay jungle fever best pal Sean.  No, neither one of them are gay; very much into the boobies (girl boobies) but they show each other their big manly chests and slap each other on the butt!  It must be a guy thing because I don't get it.  I love them both!

Me & Jack We Go Way Back

Me and Jack definitely go way back.  At one time in my life I weighed 372lbs.  It was thanks to Jack.  I don't blame him for all of it, but we had a pretty serious relationship for a while.  Somewhere in the range of 13 years or so.  He never looked this buff when I was eating with him.  Doesn't matter anymore because he doesn't rule my life anymore.  I'm almost as skinny now as he is.  Suck It Jack.

BERLIN — The bones of Rudolf Hess, Adolf Hitler’s deputy, have been exhumed and disposed of because his grave in the small Bavarian town of Wunsiedel had become a pilgrimage site for neo-Nazis, the town’s mayor said in an interview on Thursday.
Karl-Willi Beck, 56, who has been mayor of Wunsiedel since 2002, said the cemetery administrators removed Hess’s remains and his gravestone early Wednesday.
“It was the right thing to do,” Mr. Beck said.  Read the full story here.

US Space Program Spawned Many Things You Use Everyday

Ok, so maybe only your Gam Gam uses the Heart Pump, but NASA is much more than JUST a space program Mr. Obama and I feel certain its life is being cut short.

 (Reuters) - As the United States prepares to end its space shuttle program, technologies developed to nurture the reusable spaceships through three decades of flight will live on in day-to-day use on Earth.

Shuttle Atlantis and its four-member crew are due back at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 5:57 a.m. EDT on Thursday after a mission to resupply the International Space Station, a $100 billion project of 16 nations, currently orbiting about 250 miles above the planet.

NASA points to the station, finished this year after 12 years of assembly by shuttle crews, as the program's crowning achievement, but it is far from the only one.  Read the entire story here.

And go hug your Gam Gam.

Two Photos, Thirty Years Apart

Thirty years ago, the first space shuttle launched into the stratosphere. Chris Bray and his father Kenneth watched -- and took a picture. Then last Friday, the shuttle Atlantis took its final trip. Again, the Bray men were there. And again, the two snapped a photo to capture the moment.  The side-by-side photos, which are up on Chris Bray's Flickr photostream, immediately went viral on the Web.

The first shot shows 13-year-old Chris with then 39-year-old dad looking through binoculars at the space shuttle Columbia's first launch on April 12, 1981, from the Kennedy Space Center.  The second snap comes three decades later and recreates the same moment at the last shuttle voyage. The young son is now an adult. His father is now gray-haired.  Chris Bray wrote on his Flickr page of the side-by-side images: "The picture we waited 30 years to complete."

The younger Bray told the Washington Post, "We've always loved that first photo. Taking a similar one for the last launch seemed like the perfect opportunity to celebrate the shuttle program and our relationship by putting the time passed in perspective, celebrating the interests we share, and illustrating the father/son bond we've maintained over the years."  The Brays' photo touched a chord of nostalgia in many rocket enthusiasts, and the pic has been viewed on Flickr an astronomical 510,000 times.

Comments on the pictures commend the melding of the personal with the historical. Says one: "Epic. To be able to share in something so wonderful with your dad, both beginning and end. I am jealous -- both that you watched not only the first but also the last mission -- but also that you did it with your father."  Another fan of the photo who used to work on the space program wrote in, "Everyone I used to work [with in the shuttle program] thinks it's so cool, [they] get chills."
Chris Bray responded in an email that he was overwhelmed by the response: "I was surprised.  The picture had a lot of significance for me and my father, but we didn't expect that the photo would touch so many other people." He added,  " The moment has stayed with me since that day, and is one of my fondest memories and childhood experiences."

Can't really see the cracked windshield.  It was a scary drive home, but I had to check on my Domino!

Hail Damage!  My first!  Merry Christmas Insurance Company!
