I guess I missed this story when it got posted originally. But, I have friends who keep me in the know, so now I won’t be ignorant about the Houston Texans cheerleader who is also a NASA contractor.

Williams, a small-town Kansan, is an assistant project manager on the group that figures out how to keep the international space station habitable.

I’m not really sure what that means. How much dumbing-down does SI do for its readers? I mean, really. Is she helping to make sure toilet supplies don’t run out, or is she working with potable water recycling, what? Come on, SI, give me a break.

I wanted to know who had lamer pick-up lines, rocket scientists or football players, and Williams said she couldn’t answer — her team doesn’t interact with players.

I dunno. I wish I were your derivative so I could lie tangent to your curves has got to beat anything else, it’s my tried and true line!
