If the astronauts had been named Bubba and Bo they would have had the bolts in the first time, 5 minutes tops. Cross threaded maybe, but in. The US might have lost its edge in a lot of things but we still lead the world in git-er-done.

I used Coke to get Love Bugs off the windshield.

An Okie would have cleared the bolt hole with WD-40 or a .22 long rifle. But a toothbrush is not bad improv for a fly jockey.

Yes, but did they floss?
