NEW YORK – Investigators have uncovered unbelievable new evidence in the recent flight incident in the Hudson River. Previously thought to have been downed by a flock of birds shortly after takeoff from LaGuardia, what officials had originally identified as US Airways Flight 1549 was in fact not involved in a mid-air collision with birds and was also discovered not actually to be a US Airways aircraft. Flight 1549′s current whereabouts are unknown, causing concern for the families and friends of the passengers aboard. In the early morning hours of Saturday, January 17th, as divers were retrieving the black box, a flight recorder installed in all commercial aircraft, an unprecedented discovery was made outside of the cabin as the pilot of a rescue Zodiak noticed a tear in the US Airways logo near the right wing exit. Upon further investigation, it was determined that the US Airways identification was a decal covering up the true identity of the aircraft, a decommissioned Oceanic Airlines Airbus A320 hybrid. Upon further investigation, it was discovered inside the cabin as NTSB dive master Colonel H.M. Hornacek III entered the plane that “there was no way the plane could have been carrying passengers. There are no seats from the cockpit to the rear of the plane.” Hornacek also described the cockpit as “violently damaged, as though something had vandalized it severely.”  This obviously raises questions regarding the origin of the “passengers” who were rescued and the validity of their accounts has been under scrutiny by the NTSB since the discovery.

Officials aren’t sure what to make of the situation at this point, but will release more information as it is uncovered.

LOST on ABC Season 4 Premier Party

Need some ideas for the LOST on ABC season 5 premier?  Then read about our Season 4 Premier.

This year, we’re hosting yet another premier party, only this time, we’re going for “best costume.”  The catch is that the costumes will be modeled after a thing rather than a person, or a situation.  Anyone can dress up as a character.  This time, we’re dressing up as situations, things, or places, or characters in a particular situation.

As usual, we’ll have lots of pictures, and I’m sure we’ll give those of you who miss out on a great theme party the opportunity to think about this season’s finale!

It’s that time of the year when we gear up to barbecue and watch fireworks.  Even in this hot, desert state of Arizona we manage to blast off into the lower atmosphere with our eyes and ears trained on the glory of beautiful colors and crackling noises.

Every year for the past four years I’ve made it a tradition to bicycle from my area of town, Hayden and McDonald, 12 miles down the greenbelt to the north shore of Tempe Town Lake to watch the fireworks.  Every year I have been pleased.  The ride, if leisurely, will take you about an hour, unless you choose to stop for dinner at Prankster’s Too, a small sports bar alongside the greenbelt.  Once you’re there, enjoy not having to deal with traffic as you casually ride up to a great front seat show.  The south shore of the lake during this event is miserable.  I highly recommend cycling.  Make sure if you go that you bring some water and give yourself enough time to park yourself in a comfortable spot.

Be safe this year.
