“Guys, I saw this other Jim McDivitt, but he was super bad and he had black swan feathers all over him, so I stabbed him with this model rocket, and I also just gave the plot to Black Swan away…” Jim McDivitt forgets to take his meds, 1965
Many more thanks to Insert Space Here for making this masterpiece of a Gemini 4 photo available. There really are no words to express whatever is going on in this photograph. To be honest, I don’t know a lot about Jimbo except that he apparently saw a UFO on one of his missions. I’m not shocked.

Awesome!!!!
So, I thought you might want to see my Deke-Gus photos. They're all under a certain tag (and I know you'll get the reference :D). I have some more that I haven't posted yet; I'm trying to space them out. I'm so glad you like those two too!

OMG THE MATCHING SHIRTS
My sister and I do this, but we shared the same womb, etc. Gosh someone needs to write the definitive book about their friendship.
I know, right?!?! I remember doing the same thing with my sister as well, but like you said…we share the same womb, parents, DNA, etc.
Sometimes when I'm trying to write something big, I write a little "ficlet' as a warmup exercise. I may have written something about them once. 😀
I added one of these on my tumblr, astros and cosmos..Jim has the rocket through his head! Hes so kewl!
