Not A Good Day and now a Worse Day
Ichiro traded. To the Yankees. Say it ain't so, Joe. What a classy professional who gave his all for the Mariners. Now, there was a baseball player to show you kids because he took his work seriously and was never a clown or show-off.
And now Sally Ride has died. She was just 61 years old. God, I hate cancer. Bless her for all her work and continuing to help another generation learn about space travel.
From the AP:
She was also a physicist, a science writer, and after retiring from NASA she became the president and CEO of Sally Ride Science, which promoted science and technology education and helped students pursue careers in science and engineering.

(And to long-time Seattle-ites, my condolences on JP. I never watched him, but from the news reports, it sounds like he had a loyal following.)

Sally Ride was a great astronaut. After her NASA career her main work was inspiring young students to be interested in science, technology, and math, especially in elementary and middle school and especially girls. It was a great life and it's sad that it's over so soon.
