Along with Shuttle Astronut Lisa Nowak of a few weeks to months ago, -some Less than Noble Vice has finally come to my Beloved World of Space. (Not that other scattered LTNs havn't from time to time occurred before.)

And not even Astronauts and other Space Personnel are entirely Perfect. But "Nowaking" and "JSCing" are in many ways *Not* in such an excusable category. They have in their ways Stained and Sullied Space's very Sterling Face! You'd rightly Never find the likes of Lovell and so on doing such!

Needlessly Stained and Sullied now so, -but it would have been Nice if they'd have *Continued* to Look *UP* to Space's Noble Heights!, -and NOT done so!

All of Space's "former" Sterlingness doubtless continues, -but now with an attached and Irreraseable Stain!

Most of us learn in one way or another, at one time or another, -that there are some things in Life that you *can't* just put back in the Bottle! (in an "its been said" or "its been done" of a sense, -Forgiving and even some Forgetting and all, -thats another attached Story.)Much as one may very much want to!

Swallow a little or a lot of Pride! "Accept" some Undiserved Egg on your Face, as Galling as that can be! *Don't* do Columbines, Jonesboros, Guyanas, Post Offices, V-Techs, or JSCs! Just *Keep* your Head and Higher Heart about Oneself, -and *DON'T*! Be it up there in Space, or right down here on Earth!
