So, pilot gets fancy, lays in a course to knock everybody out, then fly West to whatever, but pilot passes out too?
I wondered if a plane might be hijacked by remotely cracking its nav computer?
And one of the best clues so far is done woman looking pit the window of a plane thought she saw a plane in the water - eyeball-crowdsourcing beats tech-search again?
Do I get the prize for being the first to bring up the plane today?

You ever have one of those days when what you said made perfect sense in your head.
But when it's in print, you go "Yeh, I could have worded that better"?

I think that with every comment. Including this once. Already.
Same with everything else in life.
Obsessive perfectionism + rank stupidity = endless regret

AccuWeather, RIP. You were good in your day.
Hello, Intellicast. Thanks, whoever recommended it. Been needing a new source since Accu drank the Flavor-Ade.
Up to comment #120 or so. Headlines up yet?

They'll have to pry my XP out of my virtually cold, dead hands.
XP, Accu-Weather, aren't they also the story of Obambi?

Would you rule "disparate impact" if arrests for mass murderers were made against white people more than blacks? —Vic
That's a trick question, right? Based on Holder's* orders about school discipline....
(*Holder? Did I get that right?)
Up to comment #50... past the civilization of news, countdown, and Hollyweird tale. Into the discursive jungles...

Hey, thanks! I'm always up for another pic of the decrepit soul. There may be good use for them in the upcoming campaign, after all.
Oh, that pic. More batshit than ugly.

Thanks for the news, Vic. And, uh, thanks for the place to play, Gabe.

Glad to know I wasn't just hallucinating about the disappearing comment. My tenuous grip on reality plus computer quirks equals occasional paranoia.
That big ol' global warmer finally crawled over the horizon. I might have to start the day.
Yea, though we walk through the valley of tyranny and threat, we shall fear no evil, for Thou art with us.
Have a day, folks.

My grandfather had a loaded shotgun on a gun rack in his living room for years. ... He never had to worry about those kids touching that gun.... —Case
Told this before, but... the house we're in was originally a little family hunting (drinking, gambling) lodge. The gun rack over the old kitchen sink always had at least that old .22 sitting there. Loaded. Good for rats, snakes, and plinking.No, the kids would never screw with it, but....
My older brother told me, during a party, one of Dad's 'friends' pointed that .22 at Dad's head and said, "Think it's loaded?" I can imagine Dad's thundering response. The drunk then turned and fired out the window.
The window still has a (taped-over) bullet hole from half a century ago. Used to be, it was just a small hole with spider-cracks, but the cracks have spread to the point of replacement. Alas, history will be lost.

RIP, Jack Wise, Army, retd.
Dr Jack Wise, Nam vet, one of 27 certified naturopathic endrichinologists, fwiw. Dead of a broken heart at 74. A week ago today, just got the news yesterday.
Dr Wise survived Nam, diaetes, and Lyme disease. He was not in great shape in recent years, but getting better. Then, so we hear, about a month ago, his beloved son, drunk, murdered his beloved daughter's husband in front of two granddaughters. Three sudden heart attacks later, Jack is dead. And his wife Linda also had a heart attack, and surgery.
If I weren't using the cell, I'd like to say much more about that wooly-headed old patriot. He claimed to cure cancer, diabetes, Lyme, and gluten intolerance, for the last of which he treated Milady. Crackpot or genius, maybe both, he was a wonderful man of great affection who sincerely enjoyed making people healthier, who certainly deserved better, and whose death will leave a great hole in many lives.
Please spare a prayer for the survivors of this devastated family, and also all of irreplacable Jack's desperate patients.

Not to be... okay, to BE name-ist... what kind of name is Rinsed Priapus anyway? If that was your name, wouldn't you change it to, like, John Wayne, or something?
Um.. well, er, I'll just leave that amusing autocorrection. You know who I mean, right?
In the future, government officials will be known by their online handles.
US Congressman Captain Hate
Senator panzernashorn
Secretary of Interior Alex the Chick
like that.

FenelonSpoke, I'm enjoying the walks with you.
Missed my usual sunrise glory today. Overcast just went from moon-backlit to sun-backlit. At least, I assume that's the sun up there.
Still beautiful. Warm enough at dawn to walk out in shirtsleeves, if briefly. Everything is budding out, scads of birds sing early, and the catbox needs cleaning less 'cause the cats are outdoors more. Sure signs of winter's waning
Oh! The deer pack just wandered up. The new guys sure grow up fast! Defender Dog is just lying there looking at them for now...
