My scope is powerful enough, but I need to do it all by maps.  Not easy.  This is the scope that I have.....mind  you I only have one.  lol

Would definitely be tricky!

I bet you can spy on people a few towns over with that thing, eh?

Hahaha, I definitely can but since it's a reflector, everything is upside down!

Cut the grass for the 4th time in 10 days tonight.
I must have missed the label on the fertilizer i used this year that said "Lawn Crack".
Grass looks fantastic tho'

I once saw the International Space Station with the naked eye.  Was neat seing it move across the sky.

NASA makes it easy to find.  It's definitely worth doing.

You have to get it in the dead of night.  Some of those near dawn dates it won't be dark enough to easily see IMO.

Reading about the Magnus effect and how it affects tires.

When you`re done that, read up on how Coanda effect affect tires too.

Thanks!  If I had the brains, I would have loved to have been an aerodynamics engineer.

Although truth be told, I think the only ones who care about Coanda effect on tires would be F1 engineers.

It was pictures like this that got me interested in aerodynamics at a young age.

They're casting a large and wide net here for jurors for the Oland murder trial, it'll be a long one, with the top defense lawyers in Canada and lots of issues.  It will be fascinating, but there's no way I'd want to have to sit through what will be six to eight weeks of trial.  I expect that's the trial he got the jury notice for.

As part of my 911 repair, I need an alignment.  No local Porsche dealer, so the bodyshop said they'd send my car to MB dealer.  I call MB dealer.  I ask if he's ever done an alignment on a 911.  He says no and "it can't be that hard..just make sure it has no more than 1/2 a tank of gas before bringing it in".  WRONG!  Alignments on 911s are "full weight".  Full tank of gas, spare, tool set, everything.

Guess I'll be going to Porsche dealer in USA to get aligned.   

You aren't racing the thing, I'd do the alignment myself.   Last time I did one, my team insisted we bring it to the shop.  $99 spent for nothing, my alignment was dead on the expensive computer equipment using a string.

I went to register today and was told that the selection process itself could take a week.

Does your company pay you for jury duty ?

I wonder if there's a limit?  I know my boss wouldn't be too pleased to lose someone for the duration of that trial.
