What Not To Wear

Now, I suppose some of the ladies here could make a case over Gene Kranz's
snazzy white vest and slightly loud tie which he wore while commanding MC
during a mission, but, still...give me a huge break:

....which also seems to beg for the caption "(sigh), God, they're cute when
they're working!"




Yer internet pal, Mike Flugennock, who's a bit of a sucker for
a girl in an EMU.

....And no doubt Spaceflight Now chose that picture due to the nature
of the article. How better to additionally castigate Ham than showing
her as a dressed up Barbie doll.

Agreed.

I'm quite disappointed in both the picture of Linda chosen for that article
and the almost "witch hunt" tone taken. Bill Harwood is usually more
impartial than this.

She looks like a bimbo, which I would say was the intention.

Better yet, save the bitch slap for Ms. Ham.

I hope she wakes up screaming every night for the rest of her
life haunted by the words "I couldn't remember who made the
request, so I didn't follow up on it."...and by the faces of the
7 lives that were wiped out due to her inaction.

Ham didn't exactly cover herself with glory but don't you think that
"7 lives that were wiped out due to her inaction" is overstating
things a bit?
