Well I am a Floridian (sez so on my driver's licence), but I'm from
the Gulf Coast. I am however a rabid space freak, and my greatest
memories so far of being a Coastie (US Coast Guard) is the five times
I've done Shuttle Launch security. Truly awesome (in the true meaning
of awesome) to see it claw it's way through the night sky, turning night
to day, all in perfect silence... for 30 seconds. Then the noise finally
reaches you, 6 miles away, and it's still so intense the ship vibrates.
I've grabbed every book I can get my hands on that was written by an
astronaut, and I'm slowly saving so that one day I can buy an original
Alan Bean painting, the only artist in the world who uses real moondust,
and works his canvas with the tools he used on the moon. Right now
they sell for about 20,000 a pop and upwards. This time a print just
won't cut it. I want a piece of the moon, even if it takes me years.
Oohh, that might be a good run, an art heist. Where you don't DARE
damage the goods. Not even a tiny scrape. This is a job for the
Hudson Hawk! Time it to a song and don't forget the cappachino.
