http://feelslikewisdom.wordpress.com/2007/02/08/if-virginia-is-for-lovers-then-houston-is-for-crazy-lovers/SpringLove is in the air here in Houston. The nation’s fourth largest city really is quite a romantic place. “Oh sure” you scoff, dismissing that romance can be found in the urban sprawl girded by freeways and pocked with chemical plants, but trust me love is in the air here (and a fair amount of toxins too, but I digress).
If you are a romantic sort like me, you are no doubt rejoicing in the optimism that only comes with spring. You’ve dusted off you steel mallet, bought new rubber tubing, stocked up on pepper spray, slipped into your adult diapers all in the name of love. Whilst you plot your rivals’ demise, let me show you how love is done in Houston!
If Loving You Is Wrong, I Don’t Want To Be Right Stuff
Love makes you stupid. Having someone else vying for your beau’s attention makes you CRAZZZZY.
Lisa Marie Nowak, Houston resident, NASA astronaut, had it bad for fellow space cadet, Bill Oefelin. So bad that when she discovered that there was a rival in the wings for space boy’s affections, she snapped. Slapping on a diaper, she hopped in her car loaded with instruments of mayhem (pepper spray, rubber tubing, a steel mallet and a 4 inch folding knife) and left Houston for the cross country trek to Orlando. What her intentions were (kidnapping, murder or perhaps just applying some ugly to her head) we may never really know, but they surely couldn’t have been good. She claims that she just wanted to talk to her rival. Perhaps….but as a rule I generally don’t start a conversation off by pepper spraying the person I wish to converse with.
Sadly, this attraction wasn’t shared entirely. Oh sure, he thought her breast were perky, but in zero gravity every gal’s breast are perky. But it appears there may not have been any games of “hide the shuttle” and that theirs was just a case of goo goo eyes.
Telling the Orlando cops “That was stupid” of her pepper spraying her rival. No shit. But I suppose to her, the rest of the plan was a pretty damn good.
