I hear Kenwald is beautiful this time of the year.
What a thread.
Seems the new standard for being called a traitor in this Age of American Misrule is to fly more than three dozen combat missions in Iraq for the U.S. Navy, then command the Space Shuttle as a U.S. Astronaut, then serve in the U.S. Senate, and remember that Russia attacked its neighbor, Ukraine.
Definitely. Let me know when youβre in Essex next. π

A close-in image of a protoplanetary disc around a newly formed star. Many different wavelengths of light are combined and represented by separate and various colours.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.

But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.
John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80
