Hey, I'm as big a fan as anyone of the Space Shuttle program, but The L.A. Times headline for a story about a pause in the trip moving Endeavour to its final location at a museum in California when a bit too far.
Space shuttle Endeavour resting at LAX before next big move.
Anthropomorphism at its best!
(And P.S. Isn't it a shame The Space and Rocket Center here in Alabama couldn't obtain one of the retired spacecraft? Of course we can't even pay our regular bills, much less buy multi-million dollar museum exhibits.)

That's similar to the euphisms used in the funeral industry and in newspaper obits.
