Um, Hel-LO! Dr. Ride was not on Challenger 51-L; she's alive and well.
My Challenger joke:

"Great launch! Gimmie a Light!"
BOOM!
"Noooo! Bud Light!"

Please, folks!
Mission Specialist Dr. Sally K. Ride first flew on the Challenger
on mission STS-7, June 18 1983. She was clearly not a part of
mission 51-L (so to speak), when the Challenger blew up on
January 28 1986.


Q: What do Ronald McNair (toasted Challenger mission specialist),
Richard Pryor, and Michael Jackson have in common?

A: They are members of the Inflamed Negro Foundation.


Q: Along those lines, what do Richard Pryor, Michael Jackson, and
Major Margaret Hoolighan(sic?) have in common?

A: They have Major Burns on their faces.

The original joke was:

Q: What is Richard Pryor's and Michael Jackson's favorite charity?

A: The Ignited Negro College Fund.

That said, are the Challenger jokes REALLY funny after nine years? If
they were
tasteless nine years ago, they're fossilized by now!

If I hear this stupid fucking joke one more time, you're all going to bed
early with no supper. First of all, it's not funny. Second, it's not really
