About Me
- Janiece
- I am a Hot Chick living in Castle Rock, CO with my fabulous family. We have a rescue dog named "Jackson," and she's a Basenji/Shepherd mix. She's something of a head case, but we love her. I'm a U.S. Navy vet, and I currently work as an Enterprise Solutions Architect, specializing in VoIP and multimedia contact center design. I care about social justice, libraries, science, the U.S. Constitution and the military. I'm a tax and spend liberal in a largely red county, but I try not to be stabby about it. I knit for charity. Stupidity, cupidity and wanton assholery piss me off, and I'm more than a little soft when it comes to dogs and those who serve others. I blog about whatever I feel like. I use foul language, so if that sort of thing offends you, feel free to fuck off now - if I'm unwilling to clean up my language for my fabulous Great Auntie Margie, I'm unlikely to do so for you. Newcomers are welcome here, especially those who disagree with me, but trolling and spamming will be met with the Shovel of Doom™.

This space geek says...YEAH! Thanks for posting this...can't wait to show it to my uber space geek children. I have a feeling 2009 will be an expensive year for me :)
Well, considering NASA is monetarily restrained, I think this is an excellent idea!
Especially when we find the killer earth asteroid faster than current scanning will allow.
Yay for killer asteroids! Gonna steal this video btw. ;)
Kate, I stole it from The Bad Astronomer, so feel free!
Glad I've got a new telescope (small one that I get a kick out of, nothing fancy schmancy) for it.
Hmm... call me superslow today but ... I watched that video and didn't see an actual idea. I'm guessing it's not the release of a movie? And probably not a specific day where the entire world turns off its lights?
MWT, I think it's going to be an entire year of activities, educational and volunteer, to celebrate the International Year of Astronomy.
