I know you don't cuss, but have you ever been so mad that you set the grass on fire when you spit?

Combining 30 years worth of observations, and about 15 years worth of data from the Chandra xray telescope, the big brains have made a movie of the evolution of Tycho’s supernova remnant. When the star that created this supernova remnant exploded in 1572, it was so bright that it was visible during the day. Astronomers have observed the debris field from this explosion − what is now known as Tycho’s supernova remnant − using data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and many other telescopes. Today, they know that the Tycho remnant was created by the explosion of a white dwarf star, making it part of the so-called Type Ia class of supernovas used to track the expansion of the Universe.
Doesn't look like much does it. But distances in the universe are immense. It is moving at 12 million miles per hour. Since much of the material being flung out from the shattered star has been heated by shock waves − similar to sonic booms from supersonic planes − passing through it, the remnant glows strongly in X-ray light. the expansion from the explosion is still continuing about 450 years since it was first discovered. Our vantage point is roughly 10,000 light years away.

No, not that talented Don.
Did he also ask you if you have Prince Albert in a can? Chuckle chuckle.
Something for you young people to look forward to ......... what have I done to cause my calf muscle to be so sore. It feels like it might feel after a football game, Sore as Hell, What could have happened? Leg cramps Wednesday night. Almost 73 year old legs.
He couldn't teach a dog come here from sic' 'em. FCC.
Fess up. You kept nagging and pestering till you got to pick the color didn't ya.

Ride your bike back to Ky.
He probably had something to do with Kentucky grass being blue.
Hello, my name is Don.
Hello, Don.
I post pictures of steam engines.
Oooooooooo. We don't see anything wrong with that.
Exactly. I like doing it. I'm going to keep doing it forever.
Okay then.
See you next number.

No, FCC wanted pink, but he was over ruled, that is why we have Ky blue grass.
My oldest uncle lived to be about 90. His obituary was peculiar in this sense. It mentioned his kids and grand kids, and great grand kids, and his mother as survivors. Yes, that's right. She outlived her first born. She died at 104. Bless her old heart.
evening folks
finally home - took us much longer than anticipated and pretty wiped out
Hope everyone's day has gone well

A funny thing just happened, I started to post about preceptions and remarks from certain posters in this form. Then I realize, there is no longer the need to do so. It will take a while to adjust to civil posts but I can and will get used to it. Here is a wish for one and all to enjoy fair seas and smooth sailing. Or posting train pictures.
It's much better now that a lady is here with us.
Good post from a good friend. Fred and I have been around several blocks together. He is the author of "Is this the worst 16-0 team ever." Some loved it, and some .............................
hey 93 - agree with 4 and 5. for sure
you could travel around the country and meet folk
yours are pretty close together - I'm 46 myself, with a 26 yr old, a 19 yr old and an 11 yr old, plus a 20 mo old granddaughterHard for me to imagine being retired because I'm right in the middle of raising my family (I'm 46 with a 12 and 13 YO) and it feels like I'll be working 'til noon the day of my funeral
I feel your pain hon
yes - been quite pleasant. Hope some others show up, too, but good to see the ones who have
@catfaninsc - missed those science breaks on here
or is his refrigerator running?
I replied to a post at the same moment that the OP deleted his post. That is what I got. Thought that the thread might like it. All I have gotten is one ?. Always trying to save lives.
aaaaaaaah I see.
Surprised no one else asked though, LOL
Thank you. It went right over my old head.
That is amazing
My grandparents on both sides lived to their 80's with the exception of my paternal grandmother. My grandparents sisters and brothers all lived to their 80's and lived to almost 100. Funny thing is, only one of my 9 aunts and uncles lived to 80 and mseveral died in their late fifties. I don't think I'll make it past 78
I liked Willie because he has a quick wit. Maverick I liked because of his perspective. Some I didn't care for but never said anything disrespectful or demeaning.
No goal tending.Hey Don. See if QB will go for this one as a compromise.
I told my wife in '89 that while I surely hoped nothing happened to her, is something did I was moving Chile because the women were so good looking and catered to men. Wasn't the wisest thing I have ever said......
I hope it is none of the things that you mentioned. QB has them too. Probably need more potassium. Thanks for your opinion except for the peripheral artery disease part and the part about your daddy having to have both of his legs amputated.
When can we expect to get microwaved by this? I want to miss filing my tax returns a couple of years before.Science Break:

Was at a urinal at a business and they had put a line close to the urinal that said "Bulls with short horns stand here"Hey Don. See if QB will go for this one as a compromise.
