Two birds up to that!

Microsoft CEO feels weighed down by job cuts

I feel so sorry for the poor man.

The poor man feels weighed down by the thickness of his wallet. I believe we should have a class system. There should be three classes. The third class should make no more than three times the amount of the first class. They should have no more than times the amount of assets of the lowest class. The middle class would have no more than twice the amount of the first class. It can be technologically and engineeringly proven that all human beings on the planet can live at what is considered a millionaires level of Lifestyle convenience, well not destroying the environment and living within a sustainable energy economy. The problem is that the whole economic system is fake, it's a pyramid scheme. I could go on but this rant is over...

Apollo-Soyuz at 50: The Cold War space hug that nearly ended in gasping horror

I saw it live with my naked eye

I was in a small town in Illinois and my father told me to come outside and see something, he pointed up in the sky and kept looking at his watch and he said keep watching and then we saw something that looked like a star coming through the other stars, but it was moving. He said it was the Apollo Soyuz space mission and he said keep watching, and the spacecrafts split into two pieces. I had witnessed the Apollo Soyuz undocking in real time with my naked eye, and it was wonderful !!! I was about 11 years old. It was much more exciting than the moon landing video which was pretty grainy which I also watched live.
