What do you want me to do when I break, watch news?
Here is a bit of a preview.
"Titanic expedition provides new images, but hurricane puts survey on hold" by Associated Press | August 31, 2010
ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland — A team surveying the wreck of the Titanic is showing off some crisp images of the world’s most famous shipwreck, but it has temporarily headed back to shore because of rough weather.

One thing that will get me tonight is the beginning of the film when the submersible pauses ever so slightly at the bow.
Once you have seen the film in its entirety you understand the significance of the pause.
Officials from Expedition Titanic said Sunday that they were returning to Newfoundland because high seas and winds brought on by Hurricane Danielle were preventing researchers from carrying out their work.
The team of scientists has been using a pair of robots to take thousands of photographs and hours of video of the wreck, which lies roughly 2.5 miles below the surface. The high-resolution images include shots of the ship’s bow, clearly showing the railing and anchors.
The expedition left Newfoundland earlier this month to the spot in the Atlantic where the ship struck an iceberg in 1912 and sank. More than 1,500 passengers and crew perished on the ship’s maiden voyage.
Scientist are using imaging technology and sonar devices never utilized before on the Titanic wreck. They are probing nearly a century of sediment in the debris field to seek a full inventory of the ship’s artifacts.
The expedition is a partnership between RMS Titanic Inc., which has exclusive salvage rights to the wreck, and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts....

I don't care when it concerns the great ship at the bottom of the sea.
Since oceanographer Robert Ballard and an international team discovered the Titanic in 1985, most of the expeditions have either been to photograph the wreck or gather thousands of artifacts, like fine china, shoes, and ship fittings.
James Cameron, who directed the film “Titanic,’’ has also led teams to the wreck to record the bow and the stern, which separated during the sinking and now lie one-third of a mile apart.I would just like to thank James Cameron for making "Avatar" which comes in fifth in my list of favorites (scroll down the right hand column for the listings of my favorite films).

Sometimes I like to stay in the theater and watch the credits roll.
Wow, still not a dry eye coming out of the place.
Maybe you think I am an old fool, but WHAT ELSE DO WE HAVE TO FIGHT BACK WITH against the EVIL RULERS that are RUINING THIS WORLD?
I know you may think my colorful and sometimes profane commentaries are in conflict with this idea; however, they are BORN out of FRUSTRATED PAIN!
Without OUR HEARTS standing against their evil in the cosmic karma of this world we are all doomed.
I know it is a cliche, but LOVE WILL CONQUER ALL!!!
