NASA Chief's Sexism Catches Up With Him - Bye Bye Michael Griffin !

So NASA chief Michael Griffin, when not staring at the boobs of Lori Garver as he is known to do to women he works with, actually told the direct representative of the next President of the United States that she was not qualified to "evaluate rocket options." Since that is the agency spokesman saying this, you know it has been a little sanitized.

I have an idea, just a little one since I am female, but an idea nonetheless.

Perhaps what Lori Garver is evaluating is the quality of your management, Mr. Griffin. No one is saying she should write rocket engineering plans. But certainly she is qualified to judge the quality of your management. One way to do that is by evaluating results.

Sadly for Michael Griffin, he doesn't do too well in that department. He has engineered NASA to do nothing except experiments. NASA doesn't produce anything. The only goal is the Mars dream which has come at the expense of any practical results from all this money being spent by NASA and it's blood-sucking contractors.

Here's the quote from the Bloomberg article by Demian McLean:

"NASA chief Michael Griffin opposes the idea and told Obama’s transition team leader, Lori Garver, that her colleagues lack the engineering background to evaluate rocket options, agency spokesman Chris Shank said."

Sullivan's Toy Store in Washington, DC - Be the Greatest Aunt or Uncle Ever !!

Washington DC is an international tourist destination, and local flavor can be lost as a result.  Let's start a campaign to Keep DC Different. Support local stores and merchants. 

It's amazing how every place in America is starting to look alike.  Travelers see the same hotels, stores and food as at home.  Yet, when excitedly scrolling through Expedia or Travelzoo, that is not what people are dreaming of.  

We can create an atmosphere that can only be found in Washington, DC by supporting shops that are locally-owned and operated by sticking together during this economic crisis and patronizing local stores that are DC institutions. 

One of these stores is Sullivan's Toy Store. Put another way - do you want big box, bland toy stores to be the only ones standing two years from now? What makes a location unique are the local stores and local food. Every patch of land in the United States looks like the next because all the same stores are there, and the stores are identical to each other. Each town is just like the next one. 

Sullivan's Toy Store has the most creative and innovative toys I've ever seen. You will stand out in gift giving to the kids in your life if you shop here because Sullivan's Toy Store has items that chain stores don't carry. They also carry toys you enjoyed as a kid but can't find anymore, or the updated version. Sullivans Toy Store 3412 Wisconsin Ave NW Washington, DC 20016 202-362-1343
