I need help

I live on what's known as the Space Coast (for those international)

I can walk outside my front door and watch the shuttle lift off which I take advantage of and mainly watch on tv. The only time I watch it outside is night launches-they are spectacular!

Now there is supposed to be a night launch tonight actually at 1:36AM US EST

I have been up since 5:30am and am very tired


keep me awake please I need pictures may be last night launch

I have turned on my IM if you feel up to it

I can remember being able to see those night launches from St Augustine. They are great. We went out on the beach with a couple of cases and watched. Good times.bouquet

Did you know why the launch has to be at 1:36 AM? conversing "To reach the space station, Discovery must be launched when Earth's rotation carries the launch pad into the plane of the station's orbit. For mission STS-128, that will happen at 1:36:05 a.m. ET on Tuesday." - NASA.

people on drugs tend to be very funny to those not on drugs

main reason I stopped doing drugs.....got a picture of me "high" and had to be told what happened that night

in 12 years I never regretted that I stopped using drugs
