This is great news as the only other way to get Oefelein's signature is to catch him in-person. |

I hope people will help out. Please feel free to send questions or ask them here. Sometimes emails to or from are not making it through. |

If you have emailed me in the past week and I have not responded, please email me again. It seems I am not getting many of your emails. |

FYI, there will be a limited number of items signed. So, I would not wait. Once I reach the amount, I will not be able to guarantee that your item will be signed. So mail in the form, email me or let me know to expect something so that you will not miss out. |

I tried emailing you at both your email addresses, but have not received a reply. I would like to participate, but need to know where to send Paypal payment. Thanks! |

Hi, I've also sent emails (with possibly the same PayPal question) and had no response. Just checked my spam folder and nothing there either. |

We still have spots open as well, as NASA lithos ($60). The proceeds of this will goes towards the expense of travel for him as well as going to help us bring up another astronaut this fall. |

Less then a month to go to get your stuff in or request a photo signed. We still have plenty of open slots. |

Met Bill Oefelein at Autographica a few years ago. A really charming and friendly guy... a delight to meet! |

I just saw a blue flightsuit inscribed NASA litho go for $107 on eBay. We can do that in the orange suit litho for almost half that and not inscribed. |

We still have 5 spots left. I will accept items past the 11th if you'd let me know before hand by then. |

Last call.We do have NASA lithos. $60 is a steal based on his last signature sale on eBay. |

To the folks who were participating in One Giant Leap's Bill Oefelein signing last weekend, unfortunately, Bryan McKay had an accident in which he passed out and hit his head. He is okay, but he is having a pacemaker installed to regulate his heart rhythm. Bill was here, but Bryan had your material for signing in his possession and wasn't able to bring it to Bill. Bill has agreed to sign your material at a later date when Bryan gets out of the hospital. I hope that you will join me in wishing Bryan a speedy recovery. |

I just got off the phone with Bryan and his wife. He is doing better, but he is tired and groggy right now, but feeling good. He should home in a few days. |

You better get well soon as I have no one to "fight" with on almost a daily email basis about why the Yanks and Rangers are SO MUCH better than those teams from Boston. Let's see, Yanks are in first place, Red Sox are in last (they even got swept by the Astros!) and Brady lost his appeal and is suspended for four games. Lastly, Orr is still number four behind Wayne, Gordie, and Maurice. Plus the Mick was better than Ted! That should get your blood pumping... God Speed my Boston friend... |

You should know better than to tease your friend when he is under the weather, especially about his questionable choices in sports teams.Get well soon Bryan. Go Yankees!  |

Thank you all for your cards and kind words. I am doing fine. You cannot keep a diehard Patriots and Red Sox fan down for long. The words and support are greatly appreciated. This is a great group to be part of.I will be getting the items signed but it will take longer then a few days. |

I sent the items to him and I hope they will be back in a few weeks. I hope I made the instructions simple and easy to follow. Please bear with us as we get the items back. It would have much easier if I was there.I know he will do a great job on each item. |
