Short Report

A DAY: It has been what one might call "a day."

Funny, when I got up this morning, I thought my hours-long nightmares about terrorist attacks on the Washington State Ferries was going to be the worst part of my day. 

It kind of went downhill from there, with ugly realities taking the place of bad nightmare.

Anywho, enough about the unpleasant.

One bright spot this morning was when we tuned in at the last second and saw a pretty lift off of a United Launch Alliance rocket.  It was a fun launch to watch because it was a rare West Coast event. (The vast majority of U.S. launches happen down on the Space Coast in Florida.)

On board the ULA Atlas 5 rocket was the newest National Reconnaissance Office satellite. http://spacenews.com/ula-launch-successfully-carries-nro-payload-into-orbit/#sthash.kj1hlTaX.dpuf

THERE IS ANOTHER:  Looks like we've got another blogger in the family. CJ has started regularly posting. Here's a link to his (politics-centric) blog: http://cjmoki.blogspot.com/

I'm happy to see him take initiative, do research, and get more writing practice in.
