I remember that day. Weren't there a couple of fighter jets shadowing it until it went down?

Sent directly from my mind to yours.
I think so. I remember there being some debate whether to shoot it down over a rural area before it ran out of fuel & crashed in a populated area.

I once flew in a small airplane from Acapulco to Mexico City. During the flight, I started to feel this exquisite sleepiness, of the kind you would pay money to indulge in. Luckily, I was in the front seat, and the pilot heard me when I commented on the sensation.
Ahhh! I'm really glad you told me!
I had forgotten to turn the oxygen on!, he said. So he flipped a switch, and the feeling disappeared.

I often wonder if I saved my and my family's life by my tendency to hardly ever keep my thoughts to myself.

Have not been out hat hunting lately.So Sat.I hit a few antique shops and found this Champ featherweight.I have a couple other Champs this is the best one I've found.It's just in beautiful shape.When I found my 1st Champ I thought it was missing a bow it just had a keeper.But this one is the same,guess it's the the way they did it.The bad thing is it's a 7 3/8,a little big for me.I could stuff the sweatband or sell it.Have to think on it.
