History repeats....

As the space shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon re-entry over Texas last Saturday, I am reminded of when my parents moved down to Rhode Island and I was going through all my old stuff. I found my old diary, which just happened to be 1986. I was 10 years old. Flipping through it, I was reading all the January entries (most of them incessantly boring, blah blah blah my brother gets to go to bed later than I do, blah blah) but there was one entry that was surprisingly simple.
"The space shuttle was suposed to launch today with a teacher in it, but it exploded instead. It was a horrible day."
