Good evening! I noticed that last night. Haven't been on here much the last 4 days.Science Break:
Here ya go. Mars reached opposition with the sun this morning. Meaning that the Red Planet will be exactly opposite the sun in Earth's sky. In fact, Mars will soon be at its closest point to Earth in over a decade.

Since Mars is directly opposite the sun (in relation to Earth) during opposition, Mars rises as the sun sets, and sets as the sun rises. This also means that Mars is visible all night long tonight.
Your viewing time to see Mars when it comes up over the horizon depends on your location. , Mars rises in the East at 8:10 p.m. EDT for those in the north east states and sets in the West at 5:35 a.m. EDT, so it is above the horizon for 9 hours and 25 minutes. The farther south you are the longer it will be visible.
Yep! My older cousin used to burm me up with bands made from inner tubes. Most kids today have no idea what those are, I'd bet![]()
Did you ever make one of these?
I'd rather bet on a 3 year old horse than a 19 year old maleI know nothing about betting horses. I have never bet a dollar on a horse race.
Not that there is anything wrong with it.

that's the type of work my brother does now, and even more - they renovate other rooms, and build custom decks. NOw he wants to expand into actually building houses.I don't build cabinets but I used to make a living doing custom kitchens renovations and installation. Did several for the snobs in Country Club of the South, including Lincoln Kennedy's kitchen (played OL for Falcons and Raiders).

I helped one of my friends by taking the route for a few days. My pay was 50 cents or so. I bought a slingshot at the dime store. I promptly shot a rock up in the air and failed to obey the "what goes up rule" and hit a person. Took off. Police. Caught my bud. Gave them my name. Police at my house. Dad whipped my *** and broke the slingshot. I didn't intend to hit that guy. It didn't matter.I had one of these - kinda got in trouble with it at church camp

I frequently eat cucumber-tomato salad for lunch and can personally attest to the massive amounts of water contained within this vegetable.
love cucumber-tomato salads. Do you add the onion and oil and vinegar dressing?

1. Helps Hydrate You
When you meet your specific water needs you’ll enjoy the benefits of staying hydrated, like maintaining the right body temperature, helping your cardiovascular system, and assisting in the cleansing of toxins. You’ll have more energy and help each of your organs do its job better when they’re getting enough water. Cucumber water adds that little something extra to regular water that makes you more likely to drink it more often, helping you stay hydrated each day. For the best results make sure you are using purified or spring water to avoid the intake of contaminants.
but you learned, right?I helped one of my friends by taking the route for a few days. My pay was 50 cents or so. I bought a slingshot at the dime store.

I think that it was the police car at our house that got Dad. No police cars were to be at our house. I was only about 8/9 years old.but you learned, right?
I got a whuppin too for shooting pinecones at people
yes, I can see where that would be a problemI think that it was the police car at our house that got Dad. No police cars were to be at our house. I was only about 8/9 years old.
LOL - as i said, it was at church camp - was about 10Shooting pine cones at people? My mom whupped me for throwing rotten apples against the neighbor's house. I guess you lived in a rich neighborhood if you had pine cones to toss away?
oh wow - awful.my internet access is going to be spotty over the next three weeks.
Did you see two died after summitting Everest? Pulmonary edema on the way down. 2 more are missing. Kanshung Face is a 10,000' drop. May never know what happened to those two.
Why is Monday back?
There has to be ONE unloved, unwanted, red-headed stepchild of a day of the week. Monday knows its role.
grandbabies are the best.....whether they belong to you or noHope y'all had a good weekend. I spent mine chasing a 3 year old. Loved every second of it, and reaffirmed my decision (and my ex's) NOT to have kids. Her imagination was in full swing, and I was her blank canvas. In order, here were my roles today:
1. Horsie
2. Slide (I leaned on the bed, she climbed on my shoulders and slid down my back)
3. Step stool/ladder
4. Race track (slide position, but she rolled tennis balls and her cousins' toy cars down my back)
5. Landing pad (she jumps off the bed onto my stomach)
6. Elephant (horsie position, but she held my ears instead)
She just went to sleep. I'm sucking down gin and juice so I can sleep myself!
because it's an evil bastige that must be destroyedWhy is Monday back?
