@thinkdefence My daughter (and fellow Space Launch Nerd) turns 20 on 7/11. I should leave her tuition (UVA) money in a solid brockerage account, but even if we lose it all she'd be thrilled to own SpaceX stock (even if it mean CC next year).
@VickiCocks15@LabPadre B20 getting Cryo'd this weekend & S40 getting engines...Ship static fire ~6/12 booster getting engines next week before booster Static Fire ~6/19 then dress rehersals ~6/26 and Flight 13 launch on July 2nd.
@jbarro Dems believe their intent is all that matters. We intend to do good, count every vote (eventually) & spend your money to do what we think you'd like your government to do, even if we wanted 50% of it & the other 50% does more harm than good, but we wanted to "help" so stop crying
@cdrsalamander If Yamamoto hadn't gotten his way on Pearl Harbor & resigned, Japan would like have won the war. If they'd stuck to pre-war plans US Battlefleet was in no shape to sortie to releave Manilla (or even to get there) & likely would have been defeated in detail there or en route.
@cdrsalamander And that's not even talking to his biggest gross failure, he completely misread the US response to Pearl Harbor so by trying to avoid a long battle of attrition he knew Japan couldn't win, his first move was to make that outcome inevitable.
@stevensongs Dems feel so "entitled" to the ME Senate Seat (I get it, I felt the same way about MT/OH w/ Tester & Brown), but hate for the most liberal member of the GOP caucus (because of Thune being majority leader) that you'd embrace a Nazi Antisemite & disavow the Me Too movement is nuts.
@IamDijami Brian Griese. Not b/c he's that obscure, but given he's the son of a SB winning QB, won a NC at Michigan & replaced Elway in Denver, he should be a known name (and isn't).
@Heminator The dismissing of sexual assault allegations because of the victim's "Backstory" is EXACTLY what the Me Too movement was about. Clearly that only matters when it helps the Democrat Collective.
@awstar11 Ironic that if Swalwell was in a competitive state or CD they'd have rallied behind him b/c NO issue matters except partisan control. They've sold their souls in hopes of defeating Collins, but Swalwell is expendable b/c his survival doesn't advantage The Collective.
@rah_66_comanche Which is more doable in terms of timeframe, launching Blue Moon on Falcon 9 or launching New Glenn from a different Pad or fixing the damaged Pad? I'd guess #1
