Puffy Chests

Safely landing the shuttle (after an unexpected space walk to repair yet another potentially life-threatening problem), NASA officials are walking around today with puffy chests. I'm as happy as the next guy that the brave and skilled crew returned to Earth safely, but isn't a safe landing expected nowadays?

It's time to scrap this program, which relies on 1970s technology, and move on to something worthy of the most technologically advanced nation on earth. Do you remember what cars (not to mention computers) were like back in the '70s?
