Daily Thoughts 06/08/2015

I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library this morning.

I read some of Aurora this morning.  The colonists are landing on a new world and some of them have gotten sick.

I also read some of Beyond Our Future in Space by Chris Impey.  I am reading about the early history of rocketry with Werner Von Braun, Robert Goddard, and Konstant Velikovsky.

I ordered a copy of the film Stripped which looks interesting.  http://www.strippedfilm.com/

I spent a little time updating the Constant Contact mailing list.

I also looked over a few lists of items with high circulation.
