I am married to a girl. two adult children two German Shepherds. I play drums and guitar. I love NASA, science. Your religion is child abuse. TooL Band, smoke them if you got them! Drink up drinks on me! Ride the spiral to the end... Begin!
I want to study cosmology but I don't really want to put forth any mathematical effort in the endeavor at all I just want to think things about the universe and wonder if they're true and maybe test them with telescopes and whatnot which other people can do for me If I come up with a novel idea.

This part is tremendous fun. You get sentences like "The cold expanding universe will be illuminated by occasional fireworks for a very long time" and "...ordinary low-mass stars that have settled down into white dwarf configurations and become cold spheres of pure iron." (14/n)

First Dyson considers phenomena relevant over time scales associated with the deep future, like the dissolution of galaxies, or the liquefaction of "stable" matter due to quantum tunneling at near-zero K. Here are some estimates. (13/n)

She started shakin', her big heart was breakin'
And she turned to the QB and said:
"You picked a fine time to leave for Indy
With 400 children and crops in the field
I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your body won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave for Indy"

I think it's funny that Congress is going to attempt to reign in the executive. After they've pretty much given away all of their power. This should be interesting.
