Hurray and huzzah for the launch of the second-to-last Space Shuttle, which is the last launch for Endeavor and the second second-to-last launch after NASA decided that the last last launch would not in fact be last. If the last second-to-last launch is any indication, this will not be the last second-to-last launch at all. We will need to wait several months, I think, after the last launch to be sure that that launch is not also the second-to-last launch.
With apologies,

How could you write this without including penultimate?
ReplyDeleteFor shame!
Teaboy.
'Cuz that would make me sound like a lawyer.
ReplyDeleteWow! It's that Florida sun. I just know it. It's amazing anything gets launched down there. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI humbly disagree. Penultimate, defenestration, exsanguination and antidisestablishmentarianism are all ridiculous words that are fun to say, but are not lawyer words.

Huh?! Somethin' about a space shuttle?! My brain got a little scrambled on that one. Too much fun in the sun, Ev. You're startin' to sound like a politician.
ReplyDeleteHey, Ev, where have you been? I miss your posts.
ReplyDeleteHi Pam
ReplyDeleteMy muse is on life support. Maybe I need to go hang out at the bagel shop again for a few minutes.
Give that muse a kick in the butt, and get moving. We miss you.
ReplyDeleteOK, OK, don't nag. See above. I even tossed in a couple of fun words to satisfy Teaboy.
