Imagine

With all of the space news related to the Space Shuttle Discovery recently, I was reminded of something Willie McCool, one of the astronauts of the Space Shuttle Columbia (the one that disintegrated upon re-entry in 2003) said: "From our orbital vantage point, we observe an Earth without borders, full of peace, beauty and magnificence, and we pray that humanity as a whole can imagine a borderless world as we see it, and strive to live as one in peace." Hey, maybe that's what we should do -- send all warmongers to space so they can see the big picture.

We are overworked losers

So, how do people have time to write in blogs, anyway? The most I can manage is uploading some pics from time to time. Yeesh.
Anyway, here are some pics from Elaine, Sam and Noah's visit to Maryland! Noah and Desi (only one month apart in age but over 10 pounds apart in weight -- yikes) had a lot of fun following each other around and trying unsuccessfully to bite eachother's heads.
BTW, Elaine is drunk in that photo, thanks to Cathy's margaritas.
Also included is a pic of Allie the Bug Girl -- don't know why the pic published so tiny; I'll have to check that out -- and an action shot of Craig playing volleyball at the Jamaica Jam back in June. His team actually won the tournament! Not bad for a an old man (er, um, I mean a crafty veteran).
