I just missed the space shuttle fly by of the bay area from here at the office. If I was a few miles further west I might have seen it. As it was I caught it via a video stream online and it looked cool. Maybe one day I'll see a space shuttle in person but for now this is a close as I can get to it. Kind of cool when you consider what the space shuttles managed to do time and time again with just a couple of catastrophic failures. Given the number of times normal rocket launches have problems it is quite astounding that they managed that many successful lift offs and landings.
It seems physical location does have some effect on some things. Now to get on with changing the physical location of my house (not literally but via moving to a new one) so that my wife and I can be happier in our lives. Sometimes almost the right place is not anywhere near right enough.
