Being a bit of an astronomy nerd, I could not help but just watch the launch that just occurred. Figured out the orientation (about 105 degrees from N).

Luckily that was right out our back window. Turned off all the lights and watched it streaming live on my ipad and then it appeared in the air. Nothing but cool.... extremely neat to see that.

As it went over, I flashed the lights on and off and waved. I think I could see one of the windows open up. But as it was pretty far up there, I’m not certain if they waved back or not.

However, about 30 seconds later, I heard a big ‘ole thud. :boom: .... yup, I went out front and there it was.... the newspaper...

Simply amazing...

Now I finally know how it gets here... :clap2:

I arose quite early on this glorious and ferociously fine Friday morning and with every imaginable intent on signing on here and typing in a very brief, yet prolific and profusely positive comment or two that hopefully somebody may remotely consider as timely or somewhat slightly intelligent.

Something that potentially would add long lasting value and be most meaningful to someone that may be out there just waiting for some uplifting prose without all the unneeded or seemingly unnecessary postulating preamble.

Possibly even some vastly invigorating vernacular that would challenge and motivate the slackest of the slack or the weakest of the weak this week.

Even planned on entering some comedic combination of somewhat surreal and silky smooth superlatives that could elicit a small and silent smirk of a smile from even the most sadistically smug amongst us.

As I peruse the perambulation of your post, it occurs to me that some may consider your message to be prosaic, pedestrian pablum. But not I, who considers you to be nothing short of poetic in your proverbial wax and wanings.

Was NOTHING but donating platelets yesterday at One Blood but cannot go back for more than a month because I had 26 attempted donations of platelets or whole blood over the past 12 months. One of those for platelets had my iron too high for me to donate that day. Cannot donate until around my birthday of 2-24.

There are nice people at One Blood. Try donating whole blood, red blood cells, platelets, or plasma when you can.

Nucky 01-11-2020 04:28 PM

Thank God for NOTHING. A perfect place make real friends. Not just acquaintances. People who aren't necessarily Churchgoing People but who roll with the flow and don't criticize other People's Religious Beliefs, Customs, Decorations. Making negative public comments about others Religious Beliefs is what has kept the entire world in conflict since forever.

We Proudly Display Our American Flag and anytime we've moved it is one of the first jobs to be taken care of. It is Big, Beautiful and New every 3 or 4 Months. It is always put promently in a perfect spot on our property. God I Love Our Country! The bestest thing is, I don't have to prove it to anybody.

I have found that arguing with some people is giving them oxygen to keep their negativity flowing. Eleven days into the New Year and my unusual resolution is still intact. Avoiding conflict! Aahh, it's a beautiful thing!

Yeah, I’m a fairly patriotic guy myself... the home we just sold in NC was on a lake where I led the annual 4th of July boat parade with my flag boat for 25 years.

Here’s a couple of pictures of my flag boats;

-The flag on the 25’ pole was what I ran for the last 10 years on that boat. I fabricated and welded up the bracket to support that flag arrangement. Tried not to get caught out on the lake in any lightening storms... LOL

-The picture of the lighted flag was on two of my previous boats for about 15 years. I secretly created that flag in my back yard in 1994 and totally surprised the whole lake when that one came out at night the first time. Had to run a big onboard gas generator to make it light up...

Nothing but pride in my floating ride...

Spoiler your boats are NOTHING but beautiful. Nice engineering job on the lights on both pictures. Love the Pontoon Boat. That's about my speed nowadays but I guess since I'm a extremely unqualified CapEtan there will not be one in my future.

We rented a Pontoon Boat every year at lake Wallenpaupack in N.Y. and I did great for years until a gust of wind came up while I was trying to dock that baby. It didn't sink and the damage was about $100 but it sank my confidence in boating. It was about 15 - 20 years ago. I always think about one of these boats when passing Lake Griffith but worry about Gators and Pirates! :1rotfl:

NOTHING but finally got my 2019-2020 flu shot. This was after seeing the movie 1917. Probably one of the best war movies I have seen since Saving Private Ryan. Really shows the horrors of trench warfare.

I seem to recall we had a relative who was gassed in WWI. Not sure if he survived or not. Another eye-opener was the documentary on WWI -- They Shall Not Grow Old .
