That's okay, SpaceX will try again tomorrow. I heard the scrub was due to a ship violating the restricted area.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Can’t believe a cruise ship blew the launch! I was outside watching.
Lots of shouting here and no one from Cincy!

I think most of the country was rooting for the Bengals, which is nice.

Last time the Bengals went to the Super Bowl, their opponents were SF. That would be a rematch that's long overdue.

My next door neighbor is elated; he's been a Bengals fan since he was a kid. So yay! Bengals, I guess? I don't really care so long as Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers lose.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Returning for a moment to the employer rewards thing, my dad spent 42 years at R.J. Reynolds Tobacco company. He retired before the gov't vendetta against tobacco--which still makes me twitch, since alcohol killed, widowed, orphaned, and maimed way more people than tobacco ever did--but the alcohol lobbies were just far more powerful than tobacco. Don't misunderstand--I think both are ultimately detrimental to human health, I just believe alcohol is moreso. And yes, I enjoy single malt and Guinness every now and then. I am a confessed hypocrite.
Anyhoo, RJR was a very paternal company, very "family". They had an employment rewards thing that escalated in value the longer (and better) you worked there. I think it was 35 years my dad got a pecanwood chest with eight place settings of silverplate flatware, plus serving pieces--Reed and Barton's Dresden Rose. Which we wound up with as a wedding present. Very nice. Even nicer was the stock Dad got for later anniversaries. Yay for paternalism!

Wow!! I’d love to see photos of those, Beverly!
