Scientists Discover Tenth Planet 4

NASA-Funded Scientists Discover Tenth Planet and yet it doesn’t seem to be a very popular news story. Pretty interesting to me, I’ve always enjoyed looking up at the stars. When I was much younger we had a telescope powerful enough to see distant stars and planets.

I’m slowing adding more photos but lack of time [...]

Congrats Lance! 2

Lance Armstrong won his final Tour de France, retiring from the sport after winning 7 straight. Wow. This guy is amazing. I remember watching him in the 1992 Olympics with all the hype and he wasn’t able to bring it home. Coming back after having cancer and winning 7 straight Tour’s? Wow.

Shnap-turtle for me! 3

OB (Owlboy) comes through for the win! Check out the fabulous logo he drew just for me after I asked him why he hadn’t drawn any damn turtles yet. Thanks buddy! Great work!

Mac update sites are usually piled with crap 2
