GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.
Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.
The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry. [Reply]
I was on page 5 at 80 posts per page thinking, "WTF? How long can a board totally beat down one pathetic bastard before the thread just fucking dies??" Then I saw there were two more pages. This has to rank pretty high on CP's list of longest, most merciless pile-ons ever. Midnight Vulture feels bad for Frankie right now. [Reply]
I scored 162 on mine. All I have to do is send them my credit card information and I'll get a certificate saying I'm ****ing genious!!!
Not really surprised I'm smarter than Albert Einstein or Stephen Hawking but Frankie? That that really threw me off. I knew this over sized melon sitting on top my shoulders would get the recognition it truly deserves one day. [Reply]

If you're going to call someone pathetic look in the mirror while you're at it.

I think I've figured out the issue, and given the knowledge I've gained, I think you should all holster the African fighting sticks you've been using to beat Frankie.
I asked Frankie where he located his score of 159. He responded that he had applied to purchase a new car and that was the score that came back when he was denied for buying the smart car. 159 was in fact his credit score. [Reply]
