Ok, so I downloaded the 30 day trial of InDesign and I absolutely adore it. It's ridiculous. I've already made some cool stuff with it.. I hope to be better before next year! I'm learning all the tricks and shorthands and all that stuff. It's so much fun!

So, an interesting event happened in history, on this day, back in 1978. Korean Air Lines Flight 902 (a civilian airliner, mind you), was taken down by Soviet missiles, after failing to comply with Soviet orders to leave their area. The Korean pilots ignored the commands from the Soviets, and therefore, had missiles chucked at them. Two out of the 97 passengers died, and the rest were held for two days and then released. The pilots apologized for directly ignoring the Soviets and were sent back home. My question is, what the heck were they thinking? Ok, so they got off the flight path a lot more than they expected, so why would they just ignore the Soviets? Don't they know that Soviets are cranky and flying into their "air space" is just not the right thing to do, especially without explanation? Just a thought.

Oh, and another thought- I really wish Albert Einstein was alive. He was in fact, a deeply religious man, and I can only wonder what he would think of our world that we live in today. He died on April 18, 1955 and so much has changed since then. The man was brilliant. I thoroughly enjoy his ideas and C.S. Lewis' ideas. Those two men are amazing. That is all.

I also, really enjoy blueberry muffins. The end. ♥
