I was obsessed with space for a while when I was pretty young. I remember finding out that I saw Halley's comet when I was a baby, and became convinced that I'd live long enough to see it come back again, or even die once it returned. I guess I was a little bit morbid or looking for some sort of meaning to life.

So anyway, this is the beginning of my mid-life crisis.

Author Mark Twain was born during the comet and stated he would go out with it, and did!
