Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So that spacecraft that's heading towards Pluto passed Jupiter on Feb 28th. Here is a picture it took: [link]

This dramatic image of Io was taken by the Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) on New Horizons at 11:04 Universal Time on February 28, 2007, just about 5 hours after the spacecraft's closest approach to Jupiter. The distance to Io was 2.5 million kilometers (1.5 million miles) and the image is centered at 85 degrees west longitude. At this distance, one LORRI pixel subtends 12 kilometers (7.4 miles) on Io.

This processed image provides the best view yet of the enormous 290-kilometer (180-mile) high plume from the volcano Tvashtar, in the 11 o'clock direction near Io's north pole.

Cool - it look like a fountain. A 180 mile high fountain.

So, my new clogs that I ordered from zappos.com on Friday arrived today, yay! They're very comfortable; I think they're going to work out just fine. I also had dinner with a friend tonight, and I was discussing my new shoes... guess who lives less than an hour away from a Dansko outlet where I can get them for about half price? Apparently, I do. If only I'd known to consult with S first. Ah, well. We've made plans to go up there anyway. More shoes for me!

(I know I could return these since I haven't worn them outside yet, but I'm going to keep them. It'll be a month before I get up there, and I've been dying to try these out, so...)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am left over wired from caffeine. I have no interest in doing my work for work, but could easily stay up another 2 hours cleaning out stuff in my room to get rid of.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I was going to sympathize with childhood home loss, but then I realized that my childhood home, which my parents sold two years ago, was in fact part of a development built on what used to be someone's family farm.

So, uh, maybe I'm not the right person for this.
