Me too. If only I'd had the day off, I would have tried to convince someone to go out there with me. I don't know where the public can watch from, but I want to see it actually leave the ground. With the rumbling and the fire and all that. (Except not the exploding Challenger-like stuff. That was bad enough on TV. I'm not sure how I'd hold up witnessing something like that live.)
No one here seems interested, though. It's an attitude of "oh, they're doing that again."
Silly native Floridians. I wouldn't think something like a shuttle launch would really ever get "old." It's not
that commonplace.
