With the current track, the Cape is in the bulls eye. If it hits as a Cat 5, it could (finally) take out the VAB, which is only designed for a Cat 3. It might be a sign from God about SLS.

I have to confess to being relieved, for the first time in a decade and a half, to not owning any property in Florida in hurricane season. Before we sold the house earlier this year, we did upgrade the siding, doors, and added a new window for impact, but the new owners will still have to decide if and how to shutter the old windows.

My Calcium Score

I had a scan done on Monday, and my score came out as a total of 17, most of it in my right coronary artery (my left was zero). This is in the bottom quartile, particularly for my age, but they still say I should get my cholesterol down to 200 (it’s currently about 240, with a good ratio and low tryglycerides, and has been for years) with medication, and cut out the saturated fat from my diet. What BS.
