Why are more astronauts from Ohio than any other state? Because it’s so bad that they want to leave earth entirely!

5:06 should be "Didn't you feel like slapping me?" I heard "Don't you feel like slapping me?"

Here is the corrected file. I thought these were minor, especially the omission of "and."

I d now see that there is a note the the proof listening will be "word perfect." It is kind of buried, so I think a more noticeable alert to readers would be a big help. I have done a lot of DRs and plays and this is the first time I have ever seen one asking for word perfect reading. But, not big deal. You've got it.

Thank you for helping us out with this project, Larry! I particularly appreciate your willingness to submit these changes, especially considering that it was not initially obvious that the prooflistening in this project is word perfect. I have taken you up on your suggestion of making the alert more noticeable on the first post. Thanks again for contributing your vocal skills to this DR!

Good Job! I am always amazed that you can hear errors when I have listened repeatedly to a file. It is probably just my brain hearing (or seeing) what it expects.

Why are more astronauts from Ohio than any other state? Because it’s so bad that they want to leave earth entirely!
