Neil Armstrong on the space shuttle? Naw girl. That’s like a Nova Scotian being the first man on the moon.

Stephanie: Thanks for the info! I had to ask. And you don’t hear the phrase “unsanctioned fluid” every day, do you?

Chat: Quite right. Children are quite the most unhygenic little creatures.

Chowner: Pull it on my neighbour! He won’t mind going through the house fumigation and police questioning again, I’m sure.

Hilarious. I want one just so I can pull your prank on a neighbour. Chowner’s last blog post..What I would be thinking if I were John McEnroe before playing a match overseen by an umpire who knew I had slept with his wife.

Tiggy, they pee. Hydration is very important for EVA because they work so hard so, yes, they wear a big official NASA Depends. Men used to have a pee catching contraption, but the diapers were easier for everyone so that's what they use. (I didn't include that tidbit since I thought astronaut diapers were a big joke after that one lost her mind and drove to Florida) - it's necessary as any unsanctioned fluid can be, literally, fatal. And, no, no one's ever vomited in the suit, thank God. By the way, JD, snoopy is a big deal at NASA. The astronauts have their own award that only they give that's about the most prized one NASA gives, and includes a sterling silver snoopy (in a spacesuit) snoopy. The award is called (surprise!) the Silver Snoopy. And yes, I have one. Stephanie Barr’s last blog post..Six Random Things - with a Twist

Stephanie: Wow! A real rocket scientist! Great info on real space suits… I wonder though, what happens when a spaceperson needs to pee?

Evil: That reminds me of my favourite joke by Harry Hill – “…and I often find the best place to pick up children’s shoes is a bouncy castle…”

Dana: Good point. I was hoping to indulge in all kinds of astronaut antics, but it sounds like I’d need several volunteers and a crane to get my hunk out of his suit. Kinda kills the mood.

Jeff: Only ten bucks for NASA oven mitts! Ten bucks for space stuff!

JD: Oh, come on over and we can play space! I have my mitts at the ready. But I’m going to be the pilot, all right?

Great find! I can’t afford the suit but the mitts look cool.

I LOVE a man in uniform. In fact, I've had two husbands, both of which were firefighters. But taking off a 400 pound spacesuit? My horniness doesn't last THAT long. dana’s last blog post..WHY THERE'S NO ONE IN HELL
