That is one decrepit-looking space ship!
You wouldn’t get me up in one of them things. 
The shuttle’s starting to show her age eh.
And shouldn’t someone have remembered to shift that cement mixer before trying to launch? 
On most launches, I can see these things rise into the upper atmosphere from my back yard. Pretty fascinating. It does look as though it needs to be retired.
It’s all part of the formula…What, you think they really are fiddling with expensive ceramic plating on those things?
“Hey, Vinnie, we got another panel comin’ loose; bring 'round the cement, eh?”
On a side note, I’d heard that NASA had hired two contractors from Canada to conduct regular repairs on the Shuttle…
Wrap 'er up, b’ys.

How does the Pilot climb into his seat before the launch?
Slan,
D. 
They just strap em’ to the floor…
I just have to look at a pic like that and my nose starts to itch like mad.
So… NASA let Red Green conduct the space camp too!
