TGIF

Friday again, and my morning is starting off way too early. While the coffee is brewing, I got my morning jolt of optimism when I read this.

By the way, have you had the chance to fall for Jimmy Fallon? Jimmy took over Late Night for Conan O'Brien, who is taking over The Tonight Show starting on Monday night, June 1, 2009. Conan is a guest tonight on Jay Leno's last broadcast as host of The Tonight Show.

Congratulations to Kavya Shivashanka, the lovely young lady from the great state of Kansas, who is winner of this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee. I'm not sure exactly why I'm so enthralled by spelling bee competitions, and I wonder about the future and relevancy of them considering the twitter-text-message culture of lol, c u l8r, emoticonic communication of the day. Try your hand with this spelling bee quiz. And this movie is worthy of a lazy weekend viewing.

Remember the Atlantis landing earlier this week? Do you know how they get it back to Florida when it lands in California? It catches a ride on a 747. Check out this "Image of the Day" on the Nasa Website Image Gallery.

That's all for now, folks. The weather looks great this weekend. Look for mid-70's in San Francisco and Seattle, low 80's in Atlanta, a little rain for Boston and New York, and plenty of sunshine with mid to upper 80's in Olathe, Kansas.
