Space Shuttle!

Came through Fort Worth on the 10th, it seems. I can't believe that a jetliner can actually fly with that thing strapped to its back, so I have to assume it's ALL PHOTOSHOP!!!!!!*

Is anyone actually going to take me seriously?

I for one [i]always[/i] take you seriously, my dear.

No, really. *pats pockets looking for telophase's pills*

I figured the X-38 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA_X-38) was what results a few months afterward such a flight, due to its shape/size.

DRIED FROG PILLS BEST KIND

I guess growing up in Southern California with a dad who worked in aerospace (I lived a few miles away from where the shuttles were built and a few miles farther away from where their engines, and those of the Saturn rockets that carried the Apollo spacecraft, were tested) has made me almost blase. Not only do I take you seriously, but I'm thinking "long time, no see" to the Shuttle riding piggyback on the 747.

BTW, this shows up in film. The opening scene of the James Bond movie Moonraker shows a shuttle on a 747.

Not Photoshop, really. I can tell you this with absolute assurance, because I've seen it fly in person, seen it land, gotten up close and personal with it.

But then, if it *were* some sort of conspiracy (which of course it isn't), I'd be part of it (which of course I'm not since there isn't one). So obviously the fact that I'm saying this is actually just more proof that it IS all Photoshopped, isn't it?

:-D
