    A crisis in my family, extreme challenges at work, and being single on Valentine's Day at my age had me feeling blue lately. Naturally, I sought news from another world to get my mind away from this one. NASA's rover,Curiosity, snapped a photo of the Martian sky just after sunset. A tiny bright dot is visible as the first evening 'star' over there. I feel much better now. :)

    Seriously, I hate SOFs. All they do is brag about their rings. Especially Kobe.

    Some times I wish we would get rid of Saturn as a planet (like Pluto) just to get rid of these SOFs vs SOHs back and forths....

    These SOF's are the same people who think Robert Horry should be in the Hall of Fame. It's all about the rings for them!
