When I was a youngster my parents bought me a pair of braces to hold up my new trousers. Of course these were 'Trousers to grow into' and without such support I would have been running around bare arsed. The braces were blue and had pictures of planets and rockets and, in the box, was a genuine ticket to the Moon.
I know, because it said so.
Somewhere in a landfill site, many many years ago...

Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter - launch delayed?
Maybe. By a bleedin' thunderstorm. Fuck golf, this is important. They have three 'windows' very close together 5:12, 5:22, and 5:32pm EDT.
I'm ready, got all my digits packed. And glued to NASA TV...
T minus 4mins and holding. 5:12 is gone. Next window is 5:22 EDT 5:32 EDT. Weather just gone green 5:18 EDT. Now on definite go for 5:32 EDT. Systems go. Countdown resumed 5:28 EDT.
