A person needs a little madness…

…or else they never dare cut the rope and be free”t

To announce that there must be no criticism of the president…

…or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.

Two goodbyes.

Fly me to the moon…

May 27th, 2008 by timelady

…on gossamer wings.

I have just landed on Mars.

Next, I will be going to the moon.
My wonderous man is going too.
The kids, they are coming along for the ride.

Wish you could too?

A picture is worth…

May 27th, 2008 by timelady

…a thousand words.

Phoenix, as it descends, has its’ photo taken by the Mars HiRISe camera, from ANOTHER mission.

Process that. We took a picture of ourselves descending. All on another planet.

Not moved? Umm, check your heart is still beating.

Phil says it better than I can. He has captured my sense of awe, of the return to
childlike wonder this has bought me.

Just when you wonder if humanity is worth it, we go and do something that makes you want to love us apes with a string of poetry all over again.

The phoenix hope…

May 26th, 2008 by timelady

…can wing her way through the desert skies, and still defying fortune’s spite; revive from ashes and rise.

The Phoenix has landed. I watched it live on NASA TV. It was an amazing feeling.

Phoenix has its’ own Twitter profile too!
