    “…but fisherman, i have noticed, they don’t care whether I’m brown or white, rich or poor, wearing robes or waders. All they care about is the fish, and the river, and the game we play. For fisherman the only virtues are patience, tolerance, and humility. I like this.”

    Not gonna lie - best thing I ever made. Blackened salmon on a coconut sweet potato purée. If you need me I’ll be here  eating all night.

    • RD: remember the first time you saw that sign?
    • Me: ummm... not so much.

    My version of beef korma on mashed sweet potato, with some plantain chips thrown in for good measure. Plating fell apart, but tasted pretty good…

    Dude made a music video in space. What’d you do with your weekend?

    “You will regret that you spent so much of your time worrying about things that always worked themselves out. You’ll eventually realize how many beautiful moments of your life were wasted because you were worrying about the outcome of something that a) turned out fine and b) worrying couldn’t change anyway.”

    I just love this man’s jovial no questions asked singing on cue for a tank of gas! *In.tears*

    This is awesome. Also “in tears.”

    Because I’m basically a 16-year old nerd, here’s me landing the space shuttle on what might be the coolest SIM I’ve used since I got to land a CH-53 at the Tustin Naval Air Station and crashed into the side of a carrier.

    The entire landing is via the cockpit hud, but the replay shows mostly exterior shots. 

    “As a fraction of the lifespan of the universe, as measured from its beginning to the evaporation of the last black hole, life as we know it is only possible for one thousandth of a billion, billion, billionth, billion, billion, billionth, billion, billion, billionth, of a percent. And that’s why for me, the most astonishing wonder of the universe isn’t a star, or a planet, or a galaxy. It isn’t a thing at all. It’s an instant in time. And that time, is now.”
    Brian Cox, “Wonders of the Universe”

    So terribly sad to hear of Alan Arbus’ passing yesterday. He was 95.

    RIP, Dr. Freedman. Thanks for the moments.
