-----------------------
This song is an oldie but a goodie.
It's about Lisa Nowak, an astronaut and robotics engineer who had an affair with fellow astronaut Bill Oefelein, and then in 2007 then drove from Houston TX to Orlando FL to confront Oefelein's new girlfriend Colleen Shipman at Orlando airport. Nowak was summarily arrested for attempted kidnapping. Her arrest caught the media's attention when it was reported that she had diapers among the many other (somewhat bonkers) things in her possession.
Gideon and I have known each other since we were in diapers ourselves, so I'm pleased as punch that he could join me for this extended version of this song.

NOTES:
All the stuff I list in this song is stuff that has been officially reported to have been in her car. "Less than lovers, more than friends" is also a verbatim quote from Ms. Nowak describing the nature of her relation with Mr. Oefelein.
Since writing this song, I've learned that Ms. Nowak was not actually wearing diapers at the time of the incident, though they were found in her possession. Furthermore, I've learned they were not Depends brand diapers as I name in the song, but in fact "space diapers," i.e. the diapers astronauts wear during launch when the gravity from our earth is pushing the poop out of them.
Bill Oefelein and Colleen Shipman were married in 2010.
