I saw a great video over on Andy Ihnatko’s Celestial Waste of Bandwidth this morning by Phil Plait, the author of Bad Astronomy Blog.

In the video, Phil explains what is happening with the spy satellite that is slowly crashing to Earth. For reasons that he mentions in the video, the US government has decided to blow the satellite to bits before that happens. After seeing the video, I don’t want this thing crashing anywhere near where I live.

Check out this incredibly well done video when you have a chance.

Last night’s primaries in Wisconsin and Hawaii were Barack Obama’s 9th and 10th victories in a row. I don’t know about you, but that’s one heck of a winning streak if you ask me. Barack is certainly on a roll, and his message of hope and change seems to be reaching people. What’s funny to me is that the Clinton campaign is pretty much ignoring that any of these victories (or losses in her case) have even occurred. The people are speaking very clearly now, and they’re saying that they want someone that will inspire us to all do and be better than we are today, and that’s what I call a great leader.

Tomorrow’s debate from Texas should be quite telling. Will it be the love fest that we saw in the last debate? I highly doubt it. Hillary will go after Barack with everything she’s got, and she will look like a desperate fool in front of the enter country (and world). I still hold out hope that it will be a debate of ideas, but I fear that it will turn personal and very ugly. I’m sure we’ll all be watching to see what happens.

Barack ‘n’ Roll, baby!

Well folks, today is voting day for people in twenty-four states including Illinois, Missouri, and California. No matter who you support in this primary election, please get out there and vote to make your voice heard.

If you’re still undecided, check out Barack Obama’s website to learn where he stands on the big issues facing our country. I think you may find yourself checking his name on your ballot if you take the time to get to know him.

Well, sometimes life throws a wrench in the best laid plans. Both of our kids got sick yesterday and did not improve enough today to go to the Barack Obama rally. My wife did go tonight with a friend, and I’m going to ask her to post her thoughts about the experience. She has called a couple times, and it sounds like a rock concert. She says there are 20,000 people at the Edward Jones Dome. I have to admit that I wish I was there, but hopefully, I’ll have another chance during the general election.

For all of you in Super Tuesday states, get out there and vote on Tuesday. This election is so important, and you want to make sure your candidate of choice has the best chance to make it to the general election. For me, that candidate is Barack Obama.
