Just watching a program on the last Space Shuttle flight, and seeing the launch, I found myself thinking "Just how long will it be until I get another chance to see a launch like that, something of that historic magnitude, for real?"

NASA better have some kind of star-gate technology up their sleeves. That, or Bill Gates ready to spend vast sums of money to maintain the International Space Station.

Elsewhat... Aha - now we're getting trailers for mystery-laden period alien-encounter picture Super 8, which opened in the States a month and a half ago. Being non-3D, it might just be a "surprise" hit with all the 3D nay-sayers - and it could mean I end up going to the movies two weeks in a row. Right now, I'm waiting on new of when Captain America - The First Avenger gets a big-screen airing on opening day anywhere near me...

Sports News... Congrats are due to Lewis Hamilton for an excellent win at the German Grand Prix, and Mark Cavendish for winning the closing stage of the Tour de France, and clinching the Green Jersey for winner of the points competition in about the only part of the whole race I've managed to see - again. Cavendish's triumph marks the first time a UK rider has won that particular competition, and the race win by Cadel Evans marks a milestone for Australian cycling too - their first Tour winner!

And finally... Must see what I can do to advance my Mission 101 this week - another month is coming to an end, and I have little to show for it. The Move isn't really a valid excuse any more.

I may just take an early break from computer stuff to look into the matter.
