Default John Young retirement: idle thought


"MasterShrink" has noted here that John Young's retirement date will fall
on or near the 40th anniversary of his first flight, aboard Gemini III;
imho if O'Keefe has any class at all, he'll invite Young out for a couple
of cold beers and a corned beef sandwich. (;^

"All over, people changing their votes,
along with their overcoats;
if Adolf Hitler flew in today,
they'd send a limousine anyway!" --the clash.

And _NO_ orange juice to be seen anywhere!

We can get people to the Moon in five years,
not the fifteen GWB proposes.
Give NASA a real challenge

That doesn't really rule out Tang, which is most
definitely NOT orange juice.

I hope that in his retirement that Mr. Young will write an autobiography.
