While we wait for the launch of the balloon/capsule combo that will take Felix Baumgartner to a 23-mile jumpoff altitude, we pause to reflect on the activities of our species elsewhere:
- Children are born
- Bombs are set off in street bazaars
- Flowers bloom from planted seeds
- Families gather for reverent reasons
- People suffer smashups on highways
- A person learns to read
- Someone dies from an accidental injection of meningitis
- A phone rings
