challenger accident. my first night we slept. i was mad. i am ready to go. we went through hours and hours of work. the next day i was more color. comfortable. i was a rookie. the first night i was nervous. will this be okay? the slip was good for me because i felt more confidence. tom any good stories? at some point you need to release all of this stress about technical aspects of the rocket. it s somebody else s job to get the rocket ready. you put your trust in the hundreds of people who prepared the space shuttle for our flights. when you are on the launchpad and hear about techinal difficulties, they will fix those things if they can. if not we will postpone. all i could do was focus on what i was getting ready to do and focus on my preparation mentally. i think it was a comforting
getting hearings. it seems like a low number of people who are complaining there. the court case turned on a techinal thing about notice and whether it should have been begin before. tracey is right. the legislature, this is not done. it has to cut these things and got to cut and we know we can t keep spending this way forever. somebody is going to get hurt. somebody is going to get hur. but we have to give a little. it has to come to pass and the legislature is the place to do it. obviously, you don t want to see people out on the treats but in the same time states are in crisis . so these are tough decisions and they will have to be made. if i was a governor of a state i would think twice of how quickly to push them in a job market that is so slack right now that they are going to have a lot of trouble getting jobs.
