I think back to grainy footage of Neil Armstrong taking his first steps on the moon. The excitement that was in the air when President Kennedy spoke about the Space Program on television broadcasts. Man on the moon?? That was unheard of!

Things have changed since the space program in the late ‘60’s. We’ve really come a long way as human beings in a fairly short period. 44 years isn’t that  long of a time. If you’re in your mid 20’s, just ask your mom or dad. It’s a middle aged person.

If you just signed up to Twitter today or haven’t been following Chris Hadfield, start now, and read ALL his old tweets. He’s incredible. He pretty much brought the entire human race along with him on the ISS. He’s showed us how he ate his daily meals, how he brushes his teeth, and even produced  music video of ...

I love when the weather gets nice, you can take a walk, drive with the windows down or take your bike out. The downside is you realize just how out of shape you are! That happened to me. I went on a short bike ride, half hour or so. The following day I’ve got pains where I never thought I would. My tail bone hurts me when I cough! But when it’s all said and done, it’s exercise! No pain, no gain right?!
