With all of the news about the
Human Space Exploration Framework Summary and
Preliminary Report Regarding NASA’s Space Launch System and Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle, I thought I'd write a few pages about them. Then, I changed my mind and decided to ignore them. I wanted to have some fun instead, and there is nothing fun about unaffordable HEFT reference missions and unneeded rockets designed by a handful of well-placed members of Congress.
I like puzzles, so I made a word search puzzle at
puzzle-maker.com to take my mind off the doom and gloom.
I'm not sure, but I may not have
completely succeeded in taking my mind off of the train wreck, though:

over FIVE YEARS and $10 billion LOST to finally propose MY idea of a FAST-SLV:

.
a rocket that will be ready to fly only after 2016 + delays and costs overruns
.
unfortunately, the FAST-SLV "was" good FIVE years ago, while, now, it isn't the best choice
.
this also because the ET is no longer produced, the SSME is too expensive for an expendable rocket, the SRB-5 has more extra dry mass than extra thrust, etc.
.
in other words, in 2016-2018 we will NOT see any new NASA rocket liftoff from KSC but only a futher $15-25 billion "hole" in NASA budgets
