This story about the astronaut hunting down her rival for the affections of another astronaut is just so... weird. So Jerry Springer. I heard lots of people talk about it today, and most people just couldn't believe it and a friend opined that it was the water down in Clearlake (where NASA is) that caused the astronaut to get in her car and drive to Florida, apparently wearing a trench coat, a wig, and a diaper.

A woman at the Y kept saying, "But she's an ASTRO-NOUGHT, an ASTRO-NOUGHT. ASTRO-NOUGHTS don't do things like that." And because I couldn't take the high pitched capitalized pronounciation of ASTRO-NOUGHT for a second longer, I said, "This is what happens to people who hang out in places without atmosphere."

There was silence. Sometimes, I really do just kill a room.
