The picture on Gothamist.com is good, too.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I went up to our highest floor and tried to look, but there is a building blocking that chunk of the river.
One of the attorneys has an EMT brother on his way to the scene. It's just amazing. Those pilots? Big Damn Heroes.

Thank goodness for skillful piloting, and quick rescue efforts.
I was just reading a short article about how there have been no fatal big plane crashes in the US in 7 or so years, so maybe the streak is continuing!

Scary stuff about that plane! I was a kid when Flight 191 went down at O'Hare--the photo at that link has been burned in my memory since then.
OMG I remember that crash. I had been on that flight the day before! The same flight number and route!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I will never scoff at the emergency slides again!

I didn't fly again for almost 10 years, and I white-knuckled it the whole way. I had been a very sanguine flyer before that.
