Default Time Flies...

It was 10 years ago today that Mars Pathfinder was launched. It doesn't seem
that long ago to me.

Even more scary- 41 years ago on this day, in 1965, Frank Borman and Jim
Lovell lifted off on their Gemini VII mission.

I suddenly feel very old

OK, not exactly suddenly...

I suppose it's more frightening to think that we're still two weeks away
from the 41st anniversary of their first chance to take a shower after
the mission began

My wife knew what she was getting when she married me- we were on our
honeymoon when Pathfinder landed, so we spent a lot of time watching the
various cable channels.

A guy's gotta have his priorities
