My ex''s Uncle was Gus Grissolm.

Michelle, Gus Grissom was a native of my home county, small world.

My grandma lives next door to and is a good friend of Ken Bowersox''s mom. Charlie Walker is also from my hometown.

That is so cool. I''ve always wanted to go into space. Once your cousin gets back, make sure you get great descriptions so we can live vicariously through him.

I am so excited for your cousin and for your whole family! I would go to space in a heartbeat. I hope to see the shuttle and pass station make a pass this week and I''ll be sure to wave at your cousin.
