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]

Based on Frankie's doing the same thing with me (mistakenly linking intelligence and fortitude), I can only assume that he has some kind of issue with reasoning. Or, perhaps he doesn't comprehend very well. [Reply]

Frankie totally outwitted Iowanian by dropping a "you are funny...funny looking" bomb on him. Naturally, Frankie declared victory immediately afterward. [Reply]

oh, I mentioned the great pumpkin, my word for the judeo-islam-christian god (monotheistic god that came originally out of judaeism). you just don't hear many non-islamic people going anti-masturbation these days. you know, since "every sperm is sacred" by monty python. [Reply]
is it ok that I masturbated to porn in one browser window while this was in another? I'd like to think that it's perfectly acceptable, but I worry about a homeless man breaking in here and beating me with a cudgel. [Reply]
