Proto-9/11 humor Okay I originally posted this in an r/AskReddit thread. This one's got a bit of a back story... My dad used to work at a bank in NYC trading currencies back in the 70s/80s. He was in the office one day when the electronic scrolling marquee in the office read ""The Space Shuttle Challenger exploded 90 seconds after take-off: All onboard presumed dead"", before going blank for 15 minutes. The board would usually be scrolling figures and prices all day long and it just went blank. Everyone in the office put work on hold and went into the break room to watch the coverage on the TV. Not 5 minutes after that happened, someone in the office asked, ""Where do astronauts vacation?"". Answer: ""All over the Florida Coast""
