Did you watch the launch? I didn't know there was to be a launch. My blind cousin called (she does, daily) and that was her first question; "Did you watch the launch?"

"What launch?" Songbirds or Mama Bears don't watch news channels, nor give a rip about politics...so I went online and watched the lift off and read about the 4 astronauts (one is Canadian, one is female) who are shooting up to the moon right now. They're to 'circumnavigate' the moon.

Of course I asked, "Did this one blow up?" It didn't, thank God. I find the concept of space travel fascinating. I'd never choose to go, but applaud those brave souls who would. God bless America.

So much more thrilling than which country will be targeted by our government next...
