Don't know if anyone is watching the news, but a US Airlines plane crashed into the Hudson River. The cool thing about this (besides the fact that everyone is OK) is that I learned something new today. If the pilot knows what they're doing, they can put the plane down on water and IT'LL FLOAT!! How fucking cool is that? So now there's a plane floating in the Hudson, and a nearby water taxi came over and just picked up the passengers. I just thought that was cool. Carry on everyone.

Damn Canadian Geese. I've been proposing we make that the traditional holiday eating bird for some time now. They are everywhere.

i know; isn't science wonderful? boats float too! yay for the concept of buoyancy!

Shortly after getting all the passengers to safety, the plane sunk like a lead weight. The first thing Channel 2 news said was the crash isn't terrorist-related.

Well....what a controversial topic. Like, geez, I'm disappointed that they didn't all drown, or something????????

Mitch will be disappointed that no one shows any sympathy for the geese. Although you know what eats geese eggs and young? Coyotes and Cougars. Just saying.

Hey dumbass. This isn't supposed to be a controversial topic. And I'm not disappointed that they didn't all drown, which is why I wrote this:

I just thought it was cool that the plane was floating, and that water taxis came over and rescued the passengers.

Yes, yes, let us be praiseful O Great Creator of Being; allow us one more hour to perfect our lives and perform our magic.

i liked the guy being interviewed on tv who, when asked what the landing was like, said, "scary as shit."
