Further Background

We now continue our discussion of people and their suckage.

Even the most solemn of circumstances can be made idiotic by The Background People. Here we have a hallway in the Orbiter Processing Facility at the Kennedy Space Center. The walls are painted with the mission patches for Apollo 1, Challenger 51-L, and Columbia 107; a fitting, melancholy reminder.

Until, of course, you teleport in Ron Howard, The Middle School Years:

For some reason, this picture makes me no more inclined to have children.

Now, here in Florida, the days are long, the nights are muggy, and the bugs and toll roads are thick. But it's truly not so bad as this:

It's probably just characteristic of Florida and all the tourist areas therein. On the other hand, it's hard not to get caught in someone else's photo-op

You know, you look fantastic in that color. I have no comment on the other lady in the picture...her image speaks loudly on its own.
