Skydiver aims to break sound barrier in free fall

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)—His blood could boil. His lungs could overinflate. The vessels in his brain could burst. His eyes could hemorrhage.

And, yes, he could break his neck while jumping from a mind-boggling altitude of 23 miles.
But the risk of a gruesome death has never stopped "Fearless Felix" Baumgartner in all his years of skydiving and skyscraper leaping, and it's not about to now.

Next Monday over New Mexico, he will attempt the highest, fastest free fall in history and try to become the first skydiver to break the sound barrier.

That is what I was thinking.  I saw that article too, and thought about him.

What's the difference between a guitar player and a bag of garbage ?
The garbage gets taken out at least once a week.

Why bury guitar players 6 feet under?
Because deep down they're all very nice people..

I'm getting so much junk mail I'm thinking of changing my legal name to Current Resident.

Or I could get really evil and change it to Return To Sender.

I've had a long hard day and am tired and sleepy and it shows. The above comment was meant for Olias's post about the woman at the deer crossing. 

Goodnight all...(yawn)
