Did you hear about the astronaut who was arrested because she attempted to kidnap and perhaps murder the girlfriend of another astronaut who she loved? Me either.

And I thought astronauts were upstanding citizens as a rule. I suppose I'll have to re-evaluate my position on John Glenn.

I got X-rays on my shoulder today. What I thought was nice is that the technicians shielded me from the rays with a lead contraption. You might think that they'd guard my brain, heart, lungs, intestines, kidneys, and liver. They didn't. They guarded my crotch. Interesting choice.
