It was great meeting "The Dude" at long last.   She brought us some epic beer.

Such a cool picture, but it's sad at the same time.

I'm glad that you skipped on the V-neck t-shirt this time around.  [cheeky]
He man, where are all the ads?

Not me - I was a pre-schooler during the first launch.

The first launch predates me by a couple years.

Great for someone - again, not me. I'm too young to be the guy in the photo and dad didn't make it to see the last launch.

Fixed that for you.  You do realize that the shuttle fleet being retired is not necessarily the end of the space program, right? 
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Is anyone aware of any plans for further exploration?
