It can be a rerun i've seen 10 times over,but i'll still watch Third Watch like it's the best thing on TV...cause it really is the best thing on TV...god damn I love this show...damn....
I saw "Pulp Fiction" in media today,and i'm not afraid to admit that I don't think it was that good.The editing was needlessly confusing at times,and there were parts that just plain made no sense.You get run over by a guy,yet still live,then get beat nearly to death by the guy,to top if off,he stiffs you for money,but you let him live?! C'mon...

Best quore from tonite's SNL: "In Kansas,hundred's of dead fish turned up in a dry lakebed.Shortly thereafter,President Bush said to avenge the fish,we must declare war on Iraq". -Tina Fey on Weekend Update.
One of these "Dixie Chicks" looks real possessed.Or stoned...kinda reminds me of a younger female Ozzy.
I'm watchin SNL,and "the Dikie Chicks" are on,and I really gotta wonder how they made it through a week in NYC without getting mugged at least 3 times..
Why does the empire require the snowtroopers to have dresses?

Yesterdays Ago by Gina

I don't understand your ways
And every word you say strays away from the way you acted
Yesterdays ago you were there
Yesterdays ago you showed you cared
Now you're unfair and I no longer care
The touch of you hand once so meaningful
Now brings anger and sickens my soul
You've grown cold and tired
No longer inspired
Once so full of life
Now everything you say so empty and trite, Tell me when things went wrong
Better yet tell me when things were right
When you left me that night I tried to put up a fight
I wish I hadn't cried over all the times you've lied
And said you were true as you looked into my eyes
I should have seen past your blank expressions
And meaningless affection
Should've taken a different direction
Too late for sorry excuses only leading to further abuses
Too late to show up at my door
Begging me back for more
Saying it's me you adore
Why weren't you here before?
You were always at the top of my list
Every time we kissed I was enchanted with bliss
But now I see your fist
It's shaking at me for everyone to see
Why was it so hard to believe
A life could have worked out for you and me?
A feeling you received but never returned
In the end I've learned how to get burned
By your un-trusting eyes and everything you've denied. The nights I tortured myself and cried
Tortured myself and felt like I've died
But now I'm more alive than I have been in years
I've moved on and left behind my fears
The fears of past losses and dried up tears
My past fades away and disappears within you
And everything you do doesn't matter anymore
Like it once did before.

There's no more worrying on my behalf
I remember your laugh and the touch of your hair
I remember back when you seemed to care
I remember the feeling of your lips on mine
I remember when I used to be so blind
I remember the day I could care any less
Whether or not you thought I was best
Now I can finally rest and stop caring
That you're no longer staring. Finally found someone for me
Who truly sees everything I want to be
And all that he wants from me
Is to return the feeling unconditionally
Something you would never know
Something you could never show
I'm happier than you'd ever know
Yesterdays ago I'm so glad you left
Yesterdays ago I'm happy you were like the rest. I've found salvation in someone new
Someone who cherishes everything I do
When I look into his eyes so blue
I can tell he'll always be true
So unlike you...

Hero=

he-ro Pronunciation: 'hir-(")O, 'hE-(")rO

Function: noun

Inflected Form(s): plural heroes

Etymology: Latin heros, from Greek hErOs

Date: 14th century

1 a : a mythological or legendary figure often of divine descent endowed with great strength or ability b : a person admired for their achievements and noble qualities c : one that shows great courage


I think that sums up the crew of the Columbia. As it says on a plaque at one of the old Apollo launch sites; "Ad Astra Per Aspera" which translates to, "A rough road leads to the stars." The plaque was dedicated originally to the crew of Apollo 1 who were killed in a fire during an on ground test. The plaque also applies to the crew of the Challenger.

All of these crew members did more then complete space missions ,they gave and still give us hope. They help us look to the heavens in wonder. We must not forget the sacrifices they made. We can't lose any more heroes in vain. The crew is not lost. They are and always will be, home.
