Celebratory Hug Leads to Hetero-Confirming Banter

Two members of NASA's shuttle team are still refusing to talk about a hug that co-workers described as "a little too long for comfort." Dale Rogers and Scott Hubert clasp together in nerdful glee as the Shuttle Discovery blasted off safely into space. As co-workers looked on both men hugged and for a brief second appeared as if about to smooch.

"I thought they were going to do it," said Stacy Johnson who witnessed the hug. "Which is really gross because I don't think Dale's brushed his teeth in a week."

Both men abruptly parted and began rattling off equations and frantically running through checklists that had already been done. Scott kept saying, "I'm going out and getting laid tonight, hell yea!" Which struck coworks as odd since Scott had recently been turned down by Wanda the NASA slut who even Jimmy the one-eyed shuttle engineer managed to hook up with at the Christmas party.

Later they talked football and high-fived a lot, but avoided looking at each other. "They really were over acting. I mean it's okay if they want to make out, just take it outside," said Stacy.

Dale nervously dismisses the rumors. "I hugged a guy okay, I mean we just launched the space shuttle. The Space... Shuttle. If a man wants to hug another man he should be able to do it."

"Yea," said Scott. "If a man wants to grab another man's ass and briefly fantasize about sticking his tounge down his throat, it just means... good shuttle launch... you know. Come on people, grow up."
