Question STS-121 Shuttle Launch

Anyone else following the launch of STS-121 (Space Shuttle Discovery)?

Just wondering if there was any overlap between my aviation/aeronautics interest and hybrid ownership.

PS: I don't normally like paying for web-based content, but I have to say CNN's "Pipeline" video coverage is pretty slick. Since I was visiting family over the weekend in Dallas and knew I'd have wireless Net access, but not cable television access (stayed with family, not in a hotel) I splurged on a Pipeline day pass. Got to tune in to coverage no one apparently broadcast on television other than as soundbytes, because it was carried on one of the four live Pipeline video feeds. I upgraded to a monthly account because I'm enjoying 24/7 coverage (commercial free) of the STS-121 launch attempt, including all the radio chatter when a countdown is in progress.
