Default Ike Stuff...

Alot of people lost some of their roofs. We lost internal ceilings in the family room and the kitchen. An inconvenience. Uh-oh. I just looked out on the back patio. I don't see any red stuff in the hummingbird feeder. We just filled it up yesterday. There's 100 really p***ed off hummingbirds out there!. We're in trouble!

Roughly 50% of the power is back. We got power at the house. Maybe 50% of the traffic lights work. Houston people don't know how to deal with a hurricane like Miami people do. Duh - Traffic lights out = 4 way stop. I guess unless you're in a hurry... ******oles...

NASA Johnson Space Center - moderate damage in the space station flight control room building. Minor damage in the shuttle flight control room building. The simulator building has moderately major damage (somewhere between major and moderate so how the hey would you put it???). The central plant is pretty messed up - let's call it's' roof moderatley moderate damage... Tunnel system is fine, no major flooding (minorly minor?...).

Hey, what can I say? It's their own fault they put me on the damage assessment team. Everybody else gets the whole week off! You want my opinion? Fine - majorly minorly moderate damage! Give me a few more days off!!!!

I'll let y'all know if any launch dates slip. So far no slip.

It;s all nominal, whatever that means...
