There are several dozen brand-new state-of-the-art massaging chairs over there in plain sight, but nobody ever bothered to use them.

Do I have to point out all of the amenities offered by The Lounge™? I thought you people were frequent travelers. Don’t you know that part of the mystique of entering a lounge is discovering what it has and what amenities it offers? That is part of the fun of a lounge!

I encourage all of you to explore and see for yourself. I just hope that Dovster and missy64 do not misinterpret that...

Well, I guess I am not allowed in The Lounge™ anymore.

Did you believe I actually understand what I post?

By the way, you should learn how to do a list properly...
  • It looks better, and
  • See above.

Dovster loves to do lists with numbers, but he does not do it properly either...
  1. This is what the first point of his lists should look like but does not.
  2. This should be the second point of his lists, but he has already lost his audience by this point.
  3. Dovster’s lists often go into the double-digits, as they are usually so long.
Speaking of so long — so long!

As the classical musician once said, “I’ll B Bach”.

You really need to get a Handel on the rules around here and quit Chopin them up.

What about JFE, he isn't here often, but this way we could all get an invite to the mansion.

I've actually used the massage chairs on several occasions (very comfy). When I looked just now, I thought they were all full. I didn't realize you had some new ones over there.
I've even encouraged others to take the full tour:

This is why you were made General Manager -- you like to give orders. Of course, I might be able to figure out how to make a list "properly" if the "how tos" were somewhere obvious rather than hidden in an obscure thread in an out of the way forum that no one ever visits.

(I warned that criticism of The Lounge™ Security Director wouldn't be taken kindly.)

Some of the chaperones that accompanied us took part inthe adult program. It was even more intense than the young adult's version. I wish at the time I was just a little older. The underwater weightless space station construction simulator looked like sooooooo much fun. It was very involved, to the point of requiring SCUBA training in order to do it. Still, the shuttle simulator was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. It was a complete mock-up of shuttle Endeavor, accurate in almost every way.

I'm going to investigate reserving the pool and facilities in my condo association. I'm so close to KSC it will be a great experience, complete with noise and all. If it can be had, I will post here and Community when it gets aloser and NASA finalizes their plans.

Or are you looking for the "Buy Low, Sell High" type of tip?


(Actually, it's just getting a bit crowded in here. Canarsie, could we get a couple extra chairs over here? The massaging ones, please.)
Canarsie lost his tip when he was a baby

Do you need some backup? I just had to hang up on a phonecall trying to get Aerosmith booked for the end of the month so I could come to your aid. I know it's my job and all, but I can see already where pullling double duty will be tough. I'll handle it somehow.
