Sloansailing,
Come on out, the stories Mike and I have used here, do have some elements of truth to them, in a moment of reflection, that is really sad.
Its really a great group. Which is why Mike and me about 6 or 10 years ago started this. The two of us decided to go mid-winter and get some beers and reveal in our success in not being last the previous season and how we were going to dominate the upcoming season. We then decided with two days notice to tell the rest of the group and we ended up having our first invasion. Annapoli has never been the same, mainly the plumbing....
We did include Keith, even though it was against our better judgment.
If you hear this "And, why yes… I am an astronaut." then you know you're with the right group.
To help on the astronaut front, I'm bringing a friend whose launch has been delayed until late February. He has a little time on his hands until then.
Robonaut!
