waltappel 1 #126 January 17, 2006 QuoteQuoteSorry. You guys will have to do MUCH better than that to make up for the bowling! In that case, we can make sure Walt is not here Ouch!!! Gee, and I thought I was getting beat up really bad yesterday! I'll match anything you guys come up with PLUS, RL being a space junkie and all, I will take her to Johnson Space Center (Houston, we have *no* problem making RL happy!) and I know a couple of guys who will show her around--both of them jumpers.

RhondaLea 4 #127 January 17, 2006 You do realize, of course, that I'll be passing through NC on my way home, right? And I won't have work to get back to or anything compelling me to get on the road and start driving again. Best to be careful of these offers or you'll never get rid of me. I'm sorry I missed you, sweetie. Now that we know about the phone problem, we'll work around it next time. rlIf you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

McDuck 0 #128 January 17, 2006 Heck, with what Walt's offering, I'M thinking of visiting him. And your offer of the space center is as another visitor, right? WE'VE got our own PhD in geochemistry with access to the campus observatory and telescope, not to mention the starshow thingy.

Sure, if you count getting shown around by a NASA PhD scientist being another visitor. [yawn] And you are always welcome here. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The last time Chris showed me around... ...never mind. One this is for sure, a tour with Chris as guide is certainly thorough, even if it's just to all the local bars. rlIf you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

Blocked at every turn. I need to take lessons from Jeff on how to create the perfect ego-boosting thread.

I think I met Mary Ellen way back when the Spaceland DZ was at Anahuac and she was a member of Deguello, but I don't personally know her. If you ever plan to head to Houston, let me know and I'll do the best I can to satisfy your space junkie urges. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
