This sounds bad, but I really hope they delay to Friday and here's why...
My Construction 3 final exam is at 3:30 CST on Thursday. Atlantis is supposed to launch at 3:32 CST. 
Three words for you Nathan: SKIP THE EXAM!!!

Unfortunately, those three words lead to another set of three words - FAIL THE CLASS
We're talking about college. Three more words: take that test.

I wrote a poem about the upcoming mission. Here it is:
On the launch pad 39A,
Columbus sits in the payload bay.
The count is on, the sky is clear,
For the final liftoff of the year.
Stephen, Alan, Leo, Stan,
They will make it, sure they can.
Hans is ready, so is Rex,
Leland making final checks.
This time itīs real, itīs not a test,
Letīs wish the shuttle crew the best!
Nice poem aquarius! I LOVE IT!!

SPOILER NOTICE: Do not read the following, for it is full of heresy and unbelievable gall. Hide the women and children
I will be leaving work early to miss the post launch traffic

Have to miss being there for this one..working. Thank goodness for DVRs and NASA TV. I thought about taking the day off, but there is too much work to do before winter break.

Aaaand we're off to the races!!! Counting down for another first-time-up extended-duration mission (my prediction). Yeehaaa!
And NOT ONLY is this going to be the fourth launch this year; in the first four months of next year there should be another two launches, which would be six launches in less than twelve months. Then Hubble!! It's great to be rolling again!
Now all we need is a better replacement for the Shuttle (cough Direct).

Here's to a great launch. I may or may not be here (personal reasons) for launch, but I should be here during the mission.
So.. Good luck with launch, Atlantis. Godspeed.

If I am reading the info correctly, then if liftoff occurs as planned tomorrow, it will be the first time since 1997 that there will have been no launch day scrubs or aborts during an entire calendar year! There have been delays obviously. But 2007, like 1997, will see no scrubs after the vehicle has been fueled and the crew sealed in to the spacecraft. What a remarkable accomplishment to the people on the ground. And thanks to nature for cooperating.
I am so glad I got to see the launches of 117 and 118 earlier this year. They were extraordinary. I will be back at KSC some time in 2008!

As cool as that sounds, I honestly hope that streak breaks tomorrow so I can watch it live
