Happy Hands Twins
It's Kris and Keri from the Happy Hands signing club. I think it's Kris in the green. We went to their performance tonight. It was excellent.
(The actual name is the Good Hands club.)
Many of you know that I was a stagehand in Vegas for years. I've seen a lot of different acts, some good... some not so good.
I have to say that I was very impressed with their show.
The club just returned from performing at Disneyland. They are going to perform in Florida next month.

Watching Satellites with the Naked Eye
My wife and I like to sit in the spa at night and see if we can spot satellites. They look just like stars that are moving surprisingly fast. Just go out to a dark place and look straight up. If you can see more than a few stars, you can probably see the satellites that are going by overhead. They typically go from North to South or vice versa.
If you want a chart of when they will be overhead, check out this site:
Welcome to Heavens-Above!:
..."We not only provide the times of visibility, but also detailed star charts showing the satellite's track through the heavens. All our pages, including the graphics, are generated in real-time and customized for your location and time zone. "...
You probably won't need the chart, but the times will make it easier.

Let me know if you spot any, it's a thrill.
