diapergate
I swear if I hear one more news story about how lisa nowak, astronaut, was wearing a diaper, I’m going to kick a puppy.
oh, don’t worry – it won’t be a cute one. I’ll find an ugly puppy.
I just don’t get why the news media is so infatuated with this story. astronauts are people, too. they go through the same crap everyone else does (probably worse, with all that training), so why make it a point of national interest when whorella e. dixon admits to doing the same thing – or worse – every week on maury povich? it’s not like they receive special training in this kind of thing (advanced infidelity? stand-by-your-man mechanics?), or that being an astronaut automatically gives you moral immunity. obviously she has problems, but it’s not as if her participation in the space program merits additional exposure.

you kidding me, she is probably very used to wearing a diaper due to the space program. They have to be suited up for launch for something like 10 hours. In 10 hours I typically have to pee a little. Hell, it was the space training that taught her to use Depends.
She was probably thinking, “If the yummy mission commander is allowed to crap his pants, then I can pee to my heart’s content while getting ready to kidnap a bitch.”
