End to a Sweet Weekend

Well we braved the hot dry air and decided to go to the Titan II Missile Museum. This place has the LAST Titan II Missile still in it's silo. It took an act of Congress to turn it into a Museum, and it is constantly viewed by Russian Satelites to be sure it won't be launched. Here's some pics: [image]kratesis_762572401 .jpg[/image][image]kratesi s_1187505228.jpg[/image]
We got to tour the entire facility, look at the control room which was still operational, and do a mock firing sequence. Some of the volunteers that did the tour actually worked on the site while it was operational.
After we went to the museum, we drove to a mall, which didn't have any stores really, but it did have a movie theater, so we went to see [url=http://www.vanhelsing.net/]Van Helsing[/url] . It was a decent movie, but along w/ most, the hollywood play ups were incredible....Oh well, a good flick in my view, great inventions by the friar, but a lil overboard. One thing that concerned me were the large amts of SMALL children in the theater....Like ages 3 and 4. I don't mind parents deciding when their children can see what, but they were clearly scared through the entire film. What's the point of that???
On to another mall, which actually had stores, although they catered to all the anorexic youngins that were trolling the premises. Old Navy didn't even have 'large' sizes. WTF?!?! We saw about 50 gurls in short mini skirts, and 25 in tube tops, non of which I'm knocking, but com'n, get some meat on the bones gurls! Their hip bones looked like they were going to poke out their skin!!!! With all that in mind, Timmay and I decided we were hungry :lol: and went to Red Lobster for dinner.
Now it's Sunday, Tim's gonna drive me to my hotel, and then he'll leave to go to the airport. I wish he'd either take me with him, or leave his laptop for me!!!! :wink:

I'd prefer both, but at least I'd get to email him often, and play games w/ him on the computer!! :-)
