They just played a country song - "Days Go By" - Keith Urban. Also a special message from JSC employees.

LOL. I'm not a huge country fan myself.
Anyway, they're getting ready to handover the teams with Stephen Robinson taking his turn at Capcom again. NASA TV is showing animations, I guess we're out of KU coverage.
I know that it'll be early in the morning on Thursday when the landing occurs but I'm pretty sure I'll be wanting a stiff drink. And I normally don't drink.

On Sunday, during a conversation, Dan Tani mentioned to Ron Garan "ask Sandy not to taunt Satoshi too much" to which Ron replied "actually it is the other way around, he has been feeding a lot of trash to Sandy". I wonder whether it has now intensified with that soccer result.

Ron Navias noting that during the twelve MPLM flights that occurred during the shuttle era a total of 140 tons of cargo was delivered to the ISS.
Last night I swear I heard Rob Navias say that 140 tons of cargo were transferred to the ISS via the twelve MPLM flights. That number seemed high to me but I posted what I thought I heard.
Tonight I hear Flight Director Courtenay McMillan say that 50 tons of cargo were transferred to the ISS via the 12 MPLM flights. Anyone else notice that difference?

I hate linking to this source, But I can't imagine it's total incorrect, Wiki had a list of the KG of each mission:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPLMRough math, I'd say the 140 figure is correct.

They might both be right, sorta. This MPLM seems to be transferring around 4.5 tons of net usable cargo, for a total mass including the MPLM itself and all the packing material of about 12 tons.

I'm glad to see JSC people still have a sense of humour...

Thanks Mapperuo, for doing that calculation.

Interesting. Thanks Lee Jay. It sounds like the discrepancy might therefore be between the net cargo mass vs. the total cargo mass.

Sandy congratulated Satoshi on the win and MCC said they were glad there's Harmony on the ISS.
Garan responds: 'Only in Node 2'.

Ha!
During a nice video tour of ISS, Atlantis's commander remarks, "There's Mike Fossum ... he's one of the guys who lives here."
The simple nonchalance of that line seems both laugh-worthy and kinda mind boggling.
