Up in the sky...

It's a bird! It's a plane!

No, you're both wrong, it's a comet!

For those of us out in the country where we can see stuff like this without the added problems of light pollution, this should be cool.

Hold onto your chair...

I have an announcement:

I am railroaded out.

Yes, it's true. I am B&O burned out this week. Three weeks of B&O railroad stuff has been too much for me. I am now not looking forward to the archives like I usually do, I'm tired.

Hopefully a few nights of good sleep can help this.

Where have I been...

B&O Railroad Historical Society Convention in Martinsburg, WV

Photos are here.

More Space Stuff...

Yeah, so what? It's a cool video. See a Comet's tail blown off by a Coronal Mass Ejection. (aka something you don't want to be near)

NASA slogans from the readers of Wired...

Granted it wasn't serious but the funniest one to the author of this was:

NASA: We find your lack of faith disturbing.

I have to say, I like it.
