It totally sucks.”</p> <p>Shuttle pilot Dan Lipowski repeatedly ignored demands from Adler to ‘turn this thing around and head back’.</p> <p>Liposwki said, “If it had been something really important like house keys or a photo of his kids then sure I’d have abandoned re-entry, but he’s talking about a couple of paperbacks, a T-shirt and the docking bay for his iPod. They‘re like, what, a dollar fifty?”</p> <p>Adler denies it is anything so trivial, “That’s bullshit, I had way more stuff than that, and that docking bay was like $40, so he’s talking out his space ass.”</p> <p>A spokesperson for NASA said, “On long and complicated missions things do occasionally get overlooked or misplaced. We have listened to Nick’s complaints but it’s like a $100million dollars every time we sent shit up there, and we just can’t dick about with launching these Orbiters just because some putz left comics and socks behind.</p> <p>“I’ve called the Russians, who are due up there in a couple of months, and they’ve promised to stick anything they find in an envelope and mail it to us. Beyond that that I’m not sure what else we can do?”</p> <p>However, Adler remains convinced that he has forgotten even more important stuff. He said, “Now that I come to think of it weren’t there six of us? Has anyone seen Steve?” </p>
