Houston, we have a problem...

@Aqua-Letifer How often do you think local Houston news anchors use that opening?

I fail to see why this is news.
Chicago is broke, Illinois is broke. Hell the US is broke.
By the way, the actual quotation...
We’ve all heard the phrase “Houston, we have a problem,” that comes from the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission to the moon. But what most of us don’t know is that it’s actually a misquote.
The expression was popularized when it was uttered by Kevin Bacon in the classic 1995 adventure-drama based on the mission, but the truth is, astronaut John “Jack” Swigert, who Bacon portrayed, never said this — and neither did Tom Hanks who played astronaut Jim Lovell when he repeated it.
What Swigert actually said was: “Okay, Houston. I believe we’ve had a problem here,” and Lovell repeated: “We’ve had a problem here. We’ve had a main B bus undervolt.”

Amazing to hear a Democrat advocate a 5% across the board cut excepting first responders…
