BABM you are such a legend! And already, in the tone of your posts, you are such a better man without the booze.

Keep going mate, get through today sober and keep moving forward

I love successful launches.
The launch of the Mars rover Perseverance.
The launch of your oldest child's teen years.
The launch of your recovery.
The launch of the third managerial company change in less than a year for the establishment where I work. ( If I were still drinking, I never would have been able to make it through the drama of the last year to experience this launch)

Here's to successful completion of missions for all the launches!!! :~)

BABM, I'm so glad that the launch went smoothly. And, get some rest to help with your very early wake-up today.

Wow, that is a terrific accomplishment!

I recently retired, bought a fancy telescope and have gotten pretty deep into astronomy as a hobby. This is really cool.

Something must be deleted as all of the posts talk about something that I don't see in any of your posts BABM. What happened?

For 3 years I worked as a lead engineer on the Mars 2020 Rover for Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This morning the Rover successfully launched to Mars. It will arrive there in February. My name as well as my children’s names are already on a microchip on Mars on the Insight lander. Also, my daughter turned 13 today. AND, I'm sober!
