  1. 18 years ago... A 6 year old boy got killed when plane went through wall and hit the vehicle he was riding it as it was stopped @ a traffic light. SWA Flight 1248. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southwest_Airlines_Flight_1248 "...The 737 skidded during landing and, according to witnesses, the nosegear collapsed. The plane came to rest on Central Avenue just south of the 55th Street intersection at the northwestern corner of the airport. The intersection was full of traffic, and the airplane hit at least three cars, killing six-year-old Joshua Woods, critically injuring five occupants of one car (two adults and three children) and seriously injuring four occupants of a second car. All were quickly taken to area hospitals. Three passengers from the aircraft were taken to hospitals with minor injuries. A total of 12 people were taken to hospitals after the incident. One other car that was hit was parked and unoccupied. ..." Whenever I am driving around airport. I always try and occupy the farthest lane from wall when standing at a light...😕 ...
  2. We always fly in & out of Chicago Midway. It's only one square mile in the middle of the SouthSide. It gets interesting how they gotta slam on the "brakes" when landing... "...And I'm goin' with some hesitation You know that I can surely see That I don't want to get caught up in any of that Funky sh*t goin' down in the city..." Short landing @ MDW:
  3. We are so on the Blue Jackets like a terrorist!
  4. Should have happened in November to salvage season. How does a team let in 9 goals one night, lose and then pot 9 goals against one of the better teams a few nights later and win. Definitely need a new bench boss!
  5. Prohibited... But this gets past security:
  6. What was the company? And were they ever punished, and/or sued? "After an investigation, it was found the warehouse was housing an illegal 500 gallon propane tank. An employee was attempting to move the tank to another part of the warehouse when it slipped off the forklift, breaking the valve. The leaking gas filled the entire structure with propane and the gas found an unknown ignition source." Probably when they opened the door. Don't they say a structure full of natural gas will gets its ignition source from static electricity like opening a door???
  7. https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/27/us/indiana-man-crash-rescue-fishermen/index.html What a crazy story! Someone was watching over him!
  8. Just hope it ain't anything like Old England week against the Jags earlier in year!
  9. It's also the personality that the booze is being poured into. Some people it's like flipping a switch when it gets to that magical number of drinks.
  10. Streaming sucks. Especially in modern era when everyone has cellphones. The public place I was at was a good minute behind! You have to do everything in your power to run quiet and not check texts, etc... I can't believe they get people to pay for such an inferior product. Maybe it's gr8 for movies, TV. BUT not big time sports!
  11. Sounds delightful! Thanx... Probably a modern America's dish. Aren't pumpkins and tomatoes America's in origin that made it's way around the globe?
  12. Delilah's & Lincoln Station: https://www.delilahschicago.com https://www.lincolnstation.com Wow. I just caught that! 😔
  13. No. These are the most embarrassing things great people can do!
  14. Actually, Rapp was very disciplined. He could have lit Dak up. Someone had to make contact, touch Dak. Why is everybody so soft? Everyone's a back seat driver!
  15. So weak today. That Dak things w/Rapp was a nothing burger. He slid over the top of him to avoid Dak. Rapp committed when Dak was still standing. He laid up on Dak. Very weak! Go play flag football if you want weak.
