Captain Edgar Mitchell was the lone surviving crew member of Apollo 14's mission to the moon. He was a space explorer, champion of UFO's and a straight talking Texan. Every political leader on the face of the Earth should read and heed Captain Mitchell's words. Our world would be so much better if they did.

The International Space Station will be visible to the naked eye tonight and tomorrow if the skies are clear. Here is the schedule of the best viewing times.
I remember driving to Moss Bluff over the 171 Calcasieu River bridge years ago. I saw a flaming object flying across the sky and at first thought there must have been an explosion at the plants.

I have always loved sounds. That has something to do with why I am in radio. I love telling stories with sounds. That's really what songs are. One of the coolest sounds to me is a ships horn. I hear it and wonder where the ship is sailing to. It's kind of mysterious. This guy has a ships horn in his car!
