good luck Curiosity













Bonus spurs shot.  Ben gained 8 pounds in the last week....61 to 69lbs.  Roughly - that is an 11.6% increase in weight in one week (if my math is correct - hint:JustMe).  Tricked him into some calf manna feed when he was lying on the porch, nibblin on stuff.  89,96,74,0,B,0  Link to new webcasting site:  http://www.ustream.tv/channel/thefieldlab

Guess I gotta answer the call...
(8 lb/61 lb)x100%=13.1%... another way of looking at it is
(69 lb/61 lb)x100%=113.1%, or a gain of 13.1% over the original weight which would be considered 100%.

Curiosity is one big self contained testing lab, and I can't wait to har about some of its discoveries.

Was following the live twitter feed from NASA last night. How exciting! Science is so cool! Mars Curiosity has it's own twitter account, so I started following it, too.

Nice spurs. Reminds me of a song: I've got spurs that jingle jangle jingle, as I go ridin' merrily along, and they say 'oh ain't you glad you're single', and that song can't be very far from wrong.
