Over My Eyes

You Are Wool

You are down to earth, practical, and no nonsense. You need a fabric that's durable and hearty. You don't mind if wool is itchy... at least it keeps you warm! And you're responsible enough to take care of wool properly. You aren't superficial or frivolous. You value substance over style and function over form. You are humble and thoughtful. You are happy with who you are, and you don't like vanity get the best of you.

What Kind of Fabric Are You?

Already had done this word from a listing on my Excite start page

Obfuscate the Truth

Just to prove I don't prevaricate.

Not in this case, anyway.

In the Name of Obedience

When you think of the long and gloomy history of man, you will find more hideous crimes have been committed in the name of obedience than have ever been committed in the name of rebellion.

If I saw a spider that size on my ceiling, I'd have used a shotgun to "catch" it.

Mission to Jupiter

From the NASA website:

With its suite of science instruments, Juno will investigate the existence of a solid planetary core, map Jupiter's intense magnetic field, measure the amount of water and ammonia in the deep atmosphere, and observe the planet's auroras.

Juno’s principal goal is to understand the origin and evolution of Jupiter. Underneath its dense cloud cover, Jupiter safeguards secrets to the fundamental processes and conditions that governed our solar system during its formation. As our primary example of a giant planet, Jupiter can also provide critical knowledge for understanding the planetary systems being discovered around other stars.

This artist's concept shows the Juno spacecraft in orbit around the planet Jupiter.
