Well, she seemed an appropriate title for today...
So, the shuttle launched today. It's the first time for an independence day launch. The astronauts aboard are...
Steven Lindsey, eagle scout, husband of Diane, father of three.
Mark Kelley, naval aviator, brother of Scott.
Michael Fossum, backpacker, husband of Melanie, father of four.
Piers Sellers, fan of Garbage, husband.
Lisa Nowak, pianist, wife of Richard, mother of three.
Stephanie Wilson, citizen and friend.
Thomas Reiter, son of Germany, guitarist.
Leave a thought or two, yo?
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

Heh. That's my thought.

My thoughts are not pleasant, as I witnessed a 4th of July parade tragedy.
I'll keep them to myself.
