     I guess their new motto must be "Smaller, cheaper, faster, failure."
     Perhaps

     they should stop christening their spacecraft with the phrase, "Even God
     cannot

     stop us now!"

     I'm trying to think up new interpretations of the acronym "N.A.S.A.."
     Here's

     what I've got so far:

     Not *Another* Stupid Accident!

     Need Another Ship, Assbags?

     Now-Antiquated Sixties Agency

     Negligible Aptitude, Supreme Ambition

     Never Acknowledge Serious Accusations

     Need Alternative Space Access

     News Abundant, Sucess Anemic

     Non-Apologetic Smiling Assholes

     Numbskulls Adopt Smug Attitude

     Nincompoops Are Self Assured

     New Assurances, Scant Accomplishments

     No Accountability, Scoundrels Aplenty

     Naughty Aries Shuns Arrivals

     Next Attempt, Shit-can Alcoholics!

     Negligent Antic Slays Alien!

     NASA: Add Some Armor!

     Neptune Attempt, Saturn Ahoy!

     Need Accuracy? Screw Accuracy!

     Now Another Slams Aground

     Never Approximate Spacecraft Altitude

     Numerous Aberations, Shitty Aim.

     Nothing Amateurs Should Attempt

     New Abacus Skews Addition

     Never Accept Sliderule Approximations!

     Nearly Adequate SPED Astrogation

     Nasty Acronyms Seem Apt

     See what you can come up with! Here are some more words to play with:

     slim acheivements appointment anticipated appalling around aspiration

     astonishes attrition aught available averse salvage allow scrutiny awry
     awol

     attack astro association assistance as arrives approach arrogant apogee
     never

     allow scrutiny appear should apply any anywhere antiquated alleged
     alarming

     algebra again aid aim afford afield abandon ability aborted abysmal
     admit

     adious name nearly navigation normal notorious nothing

         This way they waste less money with each failure.
