I guess they had security concerns.<br /><br />I didn't like the shuttle at first because rockets seemed so much more majestic and powerful. (Never mind that they were incredibly wasteful.) But now I'm sorry to see the program end.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-10210700323741515662012-04-17T21:45:35.710-04:002012-04-17T21:45:35.710-04:00Ellen - how awful.

Oh the traffic jam was massive. It took hours to make the 45 minute drive. I had to pee so bad locked in the middle of the snail's crawl traffic that I finally scrounged up a bottle or jar in the car and peed in that and then poured it out onto the pavement. The shuttle was awesome but mostly what I remember was having to pee in the jar in the car.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-71665309919908288142012-04-17T19:49:09.576-04:002012-04-17T19:49:09.576-04:00Thanks Lynne!Thanks Lynne!Reya Mellickerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076092659507965666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-12511045582515507652012-04-17T19:13:22.880-04:002012-04-17T19:13:22.880-04:00Totally awesome!
