Although never getting to actually launch into space, she was on loan to Disney World's Epcot Center to give Space Talks to kids about what space travel is like. Her term ended abruptly when a disagreement with an actor in a Goofy costume turned violent over the topic of size and "payload specialists.” All charges eventually were dropped, but Luna was forced to retire from the NASA organization. Since then she has been court ordered to attend an anger management program and now teaches Bikram Yoga. Jerri Atrixxx is a fan of long-lasting, long-lived, long standing, perennial, perpetual, practiced, skilled, solid, staying, steady, time-honored, versed veterans with vintage charm.

RIP Mortie, Bernie, Sal, Louis, Sylvester, and Mr. Morrison. You're in my heart. Cookie Crewneck aka ‘Cooksie,’ ‘C Crew,’ and ‘Cookielicious’ is totally into fashion. Especially the kind you can find in every mall in every city in our great nation. She knows exactly what you need and who you’re doing when you think no one’s looking. And she will never ever leave your side until you have an awesomely super-cute outfit, even if she has to give you the clothes off her back.

She gives special thanks to her husband Mac and to her toy pug, David Mamet. Wolforia is not rabid, nor does she bite. She walks stealthily among the crowd, sniffs out choice cuts to chase, pounce, flee in tamed trust. Cry not! And move forward in the night. Big ups to Papa Johns. Egena Ferlesonis happier than the brightest star to be a part of the show. She would like to give a special thanks to Science Nation for teaching her everything about space. Also Granny!
