Congrats Jennie! I know you'll fall back into it like riding a stationary bike on the floor of the space station.

Now comes the hard part. Waiting until August.

42 million for something with that many miles on it?

One down, several thousand to go.

Oh my God! You can't believe how insanely jealous I am right now. Can you tell me where I can get the details of this event. I can't believe I didn't know about it. Do the astronauts autograph their books and such? I'd like to show Al Bean pictures of my office. I have a framed poster that he autogr...

I got it once and when I immediately logged back in I got in fine.

You should absolutely go out onto the walkway paved with engraved bricks and look for the one that says "Bill Naivar"

Seriously, the Saturn V center on the bus tour is just jaw dropping.

Silence is golden.......

Duct tape is silver.

And here I thought I was the only one. :D I've only had one Space camp dream and it was several years ago. The crazy thing was, it was a dream about a reunion camp long before the Alumni camps were even suggested. In my dream I was flying a mission in the old Columbia sim and the Sim Sup came on and...

During the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta someone rented a billboard near the airport that read "Welcome to Atlanta! Now GO HOME!"


Up until now I never thought of it as a public service announcement.

A little long but I'm sure it's been spoken at every AC since the dawn of time...

"Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is closed."

Speaking of fires..... During one Adult Academy weekend we were told that we would not get a fire warning during our sim because the week before a kid heard there was a fire and grabbed a fire extinguisher and emptied it on the flight deck. During our sim *Bragging Alert* my Pilot and I were fixing ...

There's also a coke machine up there that the kids haven't cleaned out yet. Thanks Vince.

The ADA states that an employer must make a "Reasonable Accommodation" for a handicapped employee. Make sure you research this and let them know you know it.

My two favorite episodes are "Is that all there is?" about Apollo12 and (the name escapes me) the episode about the construction of the Lunar Lander. *Pete Conrad story alert* I got to meet Pete Conrad when he was promoting his series on the Speed Channel several years ago. HBO had just pl...
