Go for launch

W00t! We have "console" seats for Apollo 13 - Mission Control on 15 August, which means we'll be flicking switches and saying lines. The consoles look like this (flash, a few seconds to load). I'm taking a camera. :-D

I forgot to mention one of the items in the 40-year-old moon-landing newspapers was a Giles cartoon. It showed the Giles father standing at the door saying "Earth man is home and wants his dinner" to the family gathered round the TV set. I hope the grandmother jammed a fish bowl over his head and told him he was on the wrong planet.

Wow! I'm so excited for you! Mission Control sounds like a a lot of fun. The hard part will be waiting for Aug 15th, I expect. :D

There's the Food Show next weekend for distraction!

Greg picked that date because he's so busy at work. I'd have rather liked the 13th but it's a Thursday night.

Food Shows are so much fun! My sister and I use to travel around to different ones. Good times!

I know you'll have a blast at "Mission Control"! (pun somewhat intended) lol
