This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yikes!

One of the F-16 pilots reported he could not see the captain in the cockpit and that the co-pilot appeared to be slumped in his seat, a Greek Defense Ministry official told Reuters.

damn weird

Greek television reported that a passenger on plane said in a cellphone text message to his cousin before the crash that the pilots were slumped and that it was freezing in the plane.

“The pilot has turned blue (in the face),” the passenger said in a text message to his cousin, TV reports said.

“Cousin farewell we’re freezing,” it said.

Um, eeek? Wasn't there a golf pro whose private plane developed an oxygen problem and flew halfway across the US before crashing a couple years ago?

Paine Stewart's plane?

Yeah, our holiday weekend just got booked up. The consular officers have the worst of it, but the DH has aviation in his portfolio (and just spoke with Tsolakis on Friday).

Those poor people. Gah.

On a completely different topic, someone posted a link to a diagram that charts various sexual deviations and fetishes...anyone remember where that is?

Oh, Raq, I thought of you and the embassy -- it figures you'd be affected one way or the other. I'll be selfish enough to hope there weren't any Americans on board for your DH's sake, because I'm sure it will make everything more complicated than it already is.

Here in MA we're at 77 degrees... with a dewpoint of about 76. At least it isn't as hot as yesterday. I may venture forth from my house today.
