Alex VDP in Wonderland
Baseball buddy and manager of 'Hamo's Warriors' in the Jack Kerouac Memorial Fantasy Baseball League is traipsing across the US of A. It's his big baseball pilgrimmage wherein he visits and watches games at as many stadia as he can muster finance. Good on him.

Recently, he was spotted on TV, by somebody else in our fantasy baseball league; Alex was taking in a game at Minute Maid Park, home to his beloved Astros. I hope he's having fun.

Even MORE Shuttle Delays
Predicatbly the shuttle launch got delayed. now they are saying the launch is unlikely to take place before July 26th.

"Troubleshooting is continuing around the clock," Space Shuttle Programme Manager Bill Parsons said at a press conference yesterday.

"This team is persistent and energetic and we will conquer this problem too. Once the problem is resolved the next opportunity to tank the vehicle would be Tuesday, the 26th of July." Programme Deputy Manager Wayne Hale said.

Hale is hopeful that this week the problem could be identified and NASA managers are still optimistic about a launch within the current window, which ends July 31.

"Right now, I can tell you that we're still looking for the problem," Parsons said. "We've waited two-plus years, 2 1/2 years to be here. We're trying awfully hard to resolve this issue."


I'd really hate to be the astronauts on standby for this mission. This is no way to fly into space.
