Scott was an AE? I was an AQ/AT =P<br /><br />Respectfully,<br />Rocket Scientist 327

 

[usn_skwerl]

no, no, im saying it's a good job for one. lol.<br /><br />i went to school for AE, dropped it, went AD. <img src="/images/icons/laugh.gif" /> <br /><br />by the way, when were you in? active 97-01 for me. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

 

[rocketscientist327]

May need another spacewalk? BINGO in like less than one hour. This is just frigging NUTS! <br /><br />Pretty amazing stuff right now.

 

[usn_skwerl]

things are working well for this EVA, It's a shame they cant just push for a couple extra minutes if they can't get four, or possibly 5 cufflinks in. They have another 40 minutes or so of EVA. <br /> <br /><br />man, look at that hingewire flexing...sheesh. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

 

[rocketscientist327]

Doctor! Doctor!<br /><br />Doctor.<br /><br />Doctor!<br /><br />Gazillions of dollars in training and equipment and we still get that. I love it.<br /><br />HAHA!

 

[usn_skwerl]

lol yep its a great spacewalk, as tense as parts of it have been, I'm willing to bet they'll all want an ice cold beer after this!!!! <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

This effort is why there ought to be a requirement for a six pack on board <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

[rocketscientist327]

It is 5pm somewhere...<br /><br />Yeah, I can neither confirm or deny putting down a cold one in Saudi after a 19 hour mission. Something about a nice cold one after a crazy day.<br /><br />Once they hit the air lock I think I put one down for the boys and girls topside. <br /><br />GOD WHAT A VIEW! LOL THAT IS INCREDIBLE.

 

[MeteorWayne]

That view of Scott on the end of the arm as they move him is amazing. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
