Mood: Eh.

Word Count: Zilcho

I remember back in 1983 during Spring Break at Disney in Florida sitting in the parking lot in my god parents Winnebago. We were having lunch and resting from all the Mouse madness. On the little portable TV a space shuttle mission was preparing to launch. So the t-minus countdown ticks off and it launches. Plumes and plumes of white smoke fill the screen, you can't see the shuttle at all. Off to the east of Disney I look at the horizon and see a column of smoke growing slowly taller and taller. A glowing speck rides the tip of the smokey column and I sit slack-jawed. You need to realize this was the beginning of the MTV era and sensational journalism. A time I still had big dreams.

Out of here like Vladimir, Rob

Watching: The Bourne Identity DVD Matt Damon's best role since School Ties.
