Twas an uneventful and assignmentless week marked by some significant resurections.
The first, of most interest to no.6, is the return of the Casino Beef Week. Apparently a sponsor has been found to finance the parade and clean up the cow crap afterwards. The local newspaper had a striking frontpage photo showing the mayor of Casino recieving the cheque for $13.67 from the manager of Bruce's Beaut Beef Jerky. Strangely, a lot of people who heard this news throughout the rest of the Northern Rivers Region commenced twitching uncontrollably.
The other (seven year cyclic) return is comet 17P/Holmes which until wednesday was hiding half a dozen degrees north of the Pleiades at about mag 12. It managed half a million times brightness increase in a matter of hours and now hovers under (from a southern hemisphere perspective) Perseus at around mag 3.
Couldn't sleep last night and found (and finally watched) 'Blink' on my HDD. Extra cool! Definitely one of my favourites.
A bit easier: you know the people but which car, what engine, what date?
Cool for Kimi. One point over the top three. I hear Schumi is coming back. Actually I just made that bit up. Hard luck for Lewis - but he isn't going anywhere but up in the future.
