Oookay.....

J.K. Rowling announced she's only planning to kill two characters in "Harry Potter and the Milking of the Cash Cow"

Rowling to kill two in final book

"One character got a reprieve, but I have to say two die that I didn't intend to die," she said.

She refused to elaborate, as "I don't want the hate mail or anything else".

Rowling said she could understand why authors might want to finish off their main characters in order to ensure they could never be resurrected."

Interesting......

I've always found the story of SLC-6 at Vandenberg AFB, (my dad was stationed at VAFB shortly before his retirement), an interesting one. And I wish I could have seen a shuttle launch from that site. *Sigh* Maybe just as well.....

"Can a launch pad be cursed? Engineers laugh -- but nervously.

An Air Force launch site called SLC-6 (pronounced "Slick-6") at Vandenberg Air Force Base has become legendary in aerospace circles for an eerie history of failed programs and botched launches.

Now on Tuesday, the Boeing Corporation will tempt fate and try to launch a new spy satellite from the unlucky site -- 40 years after the Air Force built the pad over an Indian burial ground in a rocky stretch of California desert."
