Nowak raced from Houston to Orlando wearing diapers in the car so she wouldn't have to stop to go to the bathroom, authorities said. Astronauts wear diapers during launch and re-entry.

Okay, the really funny part of this is, do you know of a car that can go 900 miles without gassing up in the middle? Cause, my little fuel-efficient car ca do about 325 miles per tank.

So she would have had to stop anyway! Hello!

You know what?

I think I'm stoned on cold medicine. And it's really not helping that much.

I just had to liberate a handful of lifesavers from my big boss's office.

So she would have had to stop anyway! Hello!

So, she was probably at a gas station, thinking, "OK, do I walk over there and use that bathroom, or do I get back in my car and then in a few minutes wet my diaper? What do do... what to do...."

So she would have had to stop anyway! Hello!

Maybe she's no Britney Spears.

Yeah, but they mention that astronauts wear diapers for takeoff and re-entry so she may have just gotten used to them and decided paying at the pump and driving on was faster than visiting the loo at the Gas & Sip.

Insult to injury:

"If you were just going to talk to someone, I don't know that you would need a wig, a trench coat, an air cartridge BB gun and pepper spray," said Orlando police Sgt. Barbara Jones. "It's just really a very sad case."

"Not only did you flip out and act crazy, but you were totally lame in your crazy execution, you diaper-wearing, BB-gun toting, silly trenchcoat wearing mother of three."

you diaper-wearing, BB-gun toting, silly trenchcoat wearing mother of three."

Heh.

"..you diaper-wearing, BB-gun toting, silly trenchcoat wearing, never-going-into-space-again mother of three."

Wasn't there a Sobek something or other on Buffy? The part of my brain where I hide those things is hinting to me that it had something to do with the giant rubber snake. Does anyone remember?

Yes.

And I know this from Cindy, who mentioned it when I said something about Sobek the talking crocodile in DC's 52 title.

Don't they give astronauts regular psychological tests? Or am I basing my beliefs on that stupid Aerosmith video/Michael Bay film?

They tested the guys in The Right Stuff, though!

What chaps my ass is this stupid women is probably setting the feminist movement back a few decades. I'm waiting for the inevitable rush of conservative asswipes commenting how women are mentally unsuitable for space exploration.

women are mentally unsuitable for space exploration

Yeah, cause people with penises NEVER do anything dumb.
