I am really torn between my love of building scratch rockets, designing rockets, designing aliens worlds, and flying rockets. Since I can't make up my mind — I won't.

Yep, a gift that doesn't cost you a thing ;-) I've accumulated quite a few pictures of rockets during my travels around the local galactic cluster. So, for Christmas I zipped a few up that I use as computer screen backgrounds. I think you may enjoy them as well. Merry Christmas and a Vertically...
