This is perhaps off topic but I think its relevant perhaps with exploration.

I just found out last nite that my good friend and childhood pal Andy Feustal has been assigned to this Mays Space shuttle mission to work on the Hubble Telescope. And of course, he will be aboard the Discovery...

We started college together and he went on to recieve his PHD in Geophysics, joining NASA in 2000.

I cant even begin to tell you what a incredible soul this man is and how proud I am of him. He is truly my hero.. and he MD's as well.

WTG Andy! God Bless America

So far I've found one very old license plate, a lot of nails, some funky green pennies and other misc. change.. but who's counting? I'm just here to have fun, giggle, and make friends along the way!
