Emily and I have decided that getting jobs is for Clides. Plus we can't seem to find any. So we are starting a DVD creation business. Millions of people have old home videos lying around that they haven't watched in years because they don't use their VHS decks anymore. If we had a service that made it easy for them to transfer their tapes to DVD, we could make a fortune. I'm not going to give away the details, but the plan is solid and we are deep in the research phase.

In other news, Abe came over last night and we all stayed up till 2:15 to watch the space launch. It was great, I listened to the live NASA radio transmissions leading up to the launch, then we all went out to the beach and saw the rocket liftoff. I haven't seen a live launch in years. Very exciting. But I still don't understand the point of all this space research. What have we gained from it: Velcro, Tempurpedic beds and Freeze Dried Ice Cream? Please e-mail me if you know some real benefits of space exploration.
