Hi Sergio,

I don’t think NASA have one guy staring at solar videos all day long…more like a team of 12 or 15 I guess.

I know not everyone shares my fascination with aviation so it was good to see that you liked the Space Shuttle article. Cool as Hell. Love it.

Your diet – odd.

The guy in the music video – he does seem to be all the things you suggested!

I would say have a good weekend but it has taken me so long to reply to your comment that the weekend is already over.

Hey Patrick,

Really interesting articles this time.

The solar flare was cool to watch, I’m only wondering if they have one guy staring at solar videos 24/7 lol they probably don’t.

Ferrying that space shuttle seems very dangerous to me but it looks cool as hell. (Cool as hell? LOL)

The Matt Baker social surfing game concept looks interesting, I may pay TELive a visit next Wednesday to see what it is about live.

The potato trick was really good although I hardly peel any potatoes these days. I live exclusively on sandwiches, quesadillas and doritos.

I wouldn’t try the parking trick though. There’s a LOT of very, VERY expensive cars on this city and besides my SUV is not suitable for that kind of stunts.

I liked the music video, first time I listen to them. Visually, it reminded me of Billy Joe (Greenday) meets Harry Potter meets some sort of young Paul McCartney. Hah!

Son of a pitch… LOL great headline. Can’t wait for my copy to arrive!

Is Jon Olson a hitman? o.O I didn’t see that one coming.

Since he already accepted he used to be a pretty badass kid, then maybe there’s some truth on this. LOL j/k

Great update Pat, keep them coming!

Sergio

Hi Diane,
The potato tip is something I must also try out but I will stay well away from the other one.

Hey Tim,

Hi Patrick,
I will definitely try the Potato peeling trick–I’ve always Hated peeling potatoes! Thanks for the Tip!
And, I did miss the landing of the Discovery and the news coverage of the solar flare–the stills and the video were Fantastic! Thanks so much for your “Friday Newsletter”. It Always makes for some very interesting reading!
Diane
P.S. Although the “Parking” Tip would save me some time, I think I will skip that one, as you suggested! LOL Thanks for the Laugh!

I think I may have to try that potato and parking trick. Maybe at the same time for even faster results.
