That is so cool! I remember going to see an exhibit in Huntsville, Alabama several years ago of art that has been commissioned by NASA. The variety of subjects, mediums and in some cases, purposes was staggering! Someone needs to curate this stuff in a multi-volume coffee table book set...πŸ™‚

It is a masterpiece in filmmaking, from the tension that builds from not seeing the shark, to the U.S.S. Indianapolis story, to the memorable movie score by John Williams that serves as an integral part of the storytelling. πŸ™‚

It is going to be a slow recovery process to regain strength/use in the arm, though. I messed it up pretty badly. Good thing that I'm pretty ambidextrous!

Oh, that would be fun!! BTW, I got tickled that the latest NASA HUNCH competition involves SPAAAACE TACOS!! LOL!

Splint is off, staples are out! Arm is still wrapped up but in an articulated brace now. Elbow lets me know from time to time that something happened, but overall I'm doing well. Liz is taking very good care of me! πŸ₯°

Shattered my left elbow (and tore up a lot of other stuff in my lower left arm) about two weeks ago. Ortho doc pieced things back together. Had to cancel upcoming trip to JPL. So disappointed.

Bradbury? Heck, yeah! I knew about this book but had never seen a copy of it "out in the wild". Cool way to introduce a new generation to the "B" in the ABC's of science fiction! Enjoy.

My opening strategy today was to show the hygienist pictures of our grandchild as a diversionary tactic. It deferred the questions but could not prevent the torture from proceeding. πŸ˜‰
