Default Astronaut accused of attempted murder... wearing diapers

http://today.reuters.com/news/articl...1-ArticlePage2

In a search of Nowak's car, police later found diapers that Nowak told them she wore so she wouldn't have to stop to urinate during her drive from Houston. Astronauts wear diapers during shuttle launches and landings.

Of all government employees, only the politicians are exempt.

Are you kidding me? A female NFO with only 1500 hours and an Astronaut. Come on, if you were a male and an NFO and only 1500 hours, you'd be considered a "wash-up" and laughed at for even thinking of appying to be an Astronaut.

Then the answer must be in the phrase " My zipper is up and I feel no suction "

It's unbelievable... you would think a woman with one of the most amazing jobs in the world (if not THE most) would have more self esteem than to get embroiled in a love triangle fight over some dude. I don't care how hot he is, if I had a job as an astronaut, I would not risk ANYTHING for it!!!

Yeah, this is absolutely ********* ridiculous, especially considering her rank and where she went to school. The only good news is that she is still on active duty, so hopefully the navy will throw the entire ********* UCMJ at her, even if nasa is too spineless to sh*tcan her pathetic @$$.

Obviously nasa waived their usual "judgement" criteria when they screened this idiot.

You don't wanna take the walk of shame so you can make eye contact with your first ex-wife?
