#2 Nasa gave no reasons for reassigning Mr Oefelein to the ~~most godforsaken outpost in the outer Aleutians~~ navy.

Er, Virginia, actually. How big of a discliplinary action is this? That sounds like a cool assignment, to me. Maybe not as cool as astronaut, but still...

They saw Nowak's mugshot and decided his eyesight was defective.

The dead trees edition of that article was accompanied by a photo of Oefelein and Nowak in Canada, and she looked good, even under a big wool cap. Ain't nobody gonna look their best after driving a thousand miles in a diaper.

#8 No, Angie, I didn't literally think he was going to the outer Aleutians but no matter what the actual geography, that is metaphorically what will happen to his career.

I don't really think Nowak's physical appearance led to the Captain's re-assignment either.

#9 Embarrassing one's employer isn't usually career enhansing - unless one wants to change one's career path towards becoming a reality show participant. If he wants to head there, he needs to immediately demonstrate his own psychosis.
