[Boatanchors] Space Shuttle (OT, kinda)

[David Stinson]

If you're old as me, you remember SkyLab.
I had a spacecraft thermal printer that was surplused
from that program.  I was 18.  I cannibalized it.
Not the first nor the last  S T U P I D stunt 
I'll ever pull.... sigh....

And God speed to the Chinese, who will doubtlessly build
humanities first StarShip, since Americans are now too busy
being under-educated, over-entertained, over-fed
and obsessed with worthless, disgusting crap
like "American Idol" to do it.

And yeah... I'm guilty, too....
