Hey, Gud, we bought an Element back in December and love the heck out of it. I'd be glad to talk about pluses and minuses (and why we went for this rather than for, say, a CRV or Matrix)
I like the Element, but it has the same problem that almost any potential minivan replacement has. The highway mileage would not be enough of an improvment to overcome the cost of changing things and the loss of cargo space and seat space. The minivan typically gets 23 - 25 mpg on a trip, but even at 30mpg, we just don't save enough money to cover the cost of getting something else. Plus, the van is under warrenty, and has gobs of space.
Gud, I'd check out the NASA image gallery or the Hubble gallery.
Thanks. I'm also looking for sort of a technical display for interal systems and stuff.
am happy to report I slept well.
unfortunately, I slept through the alarm after one snooze hit - got to work a little after 10. ooops. oh well.
did not get job I interviewed for 2 weeks or so ago. pffft.
great weekend.
don;t wanna work. am signing papers on my refinance at 1pm, should possibly try to clean some stuff off my desk so I can actually sign them.
Thanks Deena. There are a couple there I think I'll use. I'm going to laminate them and probably frame them with some leftover wood from a board I had to rip.

Bastards!
I slept like crap -- why is it that when I say up too late, I also wake up before my alarm? That shit makes no sense.

Sorry. What clueless dorks.
Ugh, msbelle, I'm sorry.
This morning I am enjoying this blog from a NYC bouncer/grad student.
Boo on the not-properly-appreciative people.
I can see a white dogwood in bloom outside my window. This makes me happy. This seems to be peak springliness for this area right now. It is fantastic. Dogwood, tulips, azaleas, the pink petalblizzard trees, tulip magnolias...
I woke up at 5am with a pounding head from this cold with an added migraine for extra crapaliciousness. Walked the dog, took meds, stood in the shower for a long time and stumbled out the door to go to work. I was rewarded for my devotion to duty by seeing a hummingbird hovering over the flowers in our yard about two feet from me. So cool.
