Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

I love everything about the recently completed Crew Dragon mission which finally brought the launch of US astronauts from US soil back to a being a reality. But perhaps my favorite bit of trivia was that the toilet on the Crew Dragon is called the "Commode O Dragon"... "Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants." - Epictetus... I would love to watch a show or listen to a podcast where a Dalek (from Doctor Who) asks scientists and writers questions in his Dalek voice... When your party bases everything on identity politics should you be surprised when the chickens come home to roost?... "The more sweat on the training field, the less blood on the battlefield." - Col. David Hackworth... "Stupid people are ruining America." - Herman Cain (rest in peace)...
