Academic Bowl Tomorrow

Here are some of my ideas for the blog for the next few days, because we all know you can't get enough Caputo's Corner. 

First, there will be simple user's guide to the impending government shutdown (if it even happens).  How will it affect you and how should you prepare?  Here's a hint.  Bread, milk, and toilet paper will not be necessary.  I've made a few references to in previous posts this month. 

Second, with the launch of Discovery yesterday, I've been on one of my space kicks.  I have been thinking of what are some of the most important moments in the history of human spaceflight (good or bad).  Bingo!  Top 10 list!  Nick's Lists will be returning next week with a feature on some of the seminal moments in the history of humanity's attempts to reach the heavens.  Hopefully, I'll have some time to sit down and write it up well.  As you know, space is one of my things.  You don't mess with space. 

As for the short term, my school is putting on a region-wide academic tournament tomorrow morning.  Translation, Nick's got to work on Saturday (Hooray!).   A full recap will be forthcoming if there is anything worth recapping.  Enjoy your Friday.
