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]
Why, Mr. Frankie? Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you’re fighting for something? For more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom or truth? Perhaps peace? Or could it be for love? Illusions, Mr. Frankie. Vagaries of perception. Temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself, although… only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, Mr. Frankie. You must know it by now. You can’t win. It’s pointless to keep fighting. Why, Mr. Frankie? WHY? WHY DO YOU PERSIST?

No, what is strange is I did it and you still do not get it. Oh wait, that's not strange at all. Silly me. :-) [Reply]

Interesting, even a couple of days hiatus did not afford you funny material.
Iovagian, you are just not funny dude. Maybe, maybe if you wrote this stuff for a middle school birthday party you might get some chuckles, depending on how much alcohol you provide the minors, of course. [Reply]

Take it or leave it. It happened and I don't give a sh!t if you accept it. :-) [Reply]

You know what his response would be to this post anyway, (if he would actually respond to it). Posted via Mobile Device
I guess you missed the part where Frankie gets emailed new posts. It could drop off 5 pages, and he'll still bump it once he checks his inbox. [Reply]

I speak 3 languages. But really 4. I can speak to CP assholes in their own language.
Frankie, since you're front and center I just want to say that the girl I asked about in the "give me an opening line" post is Iranian. We're leaving for NYC (although we both hate that liberal busy body state) to go hang out and she's gonna watch me try to move up to my green belt in Krav Maga rolling with some bad ass Jews.
You may have a Wop makin' babies with an Iranian. And gotta say, some of the most beautiful girls in the world come from there.

My father has been estranged from the rest of the family for the better part of the last 2 decades. It's a long story. Think (loosely) "House of Sand and Fog." He is 90 years old now.
Last night my brother in California called and told me that dad's current wife of 7 years has tracked their phone number down and called them with the news that he has been in the hospital/rehab for the last 3 months. Seems when he was trying to board a city transit bus in Tarzana, a "homeless" person approaches him "telling" him to give him $20. When my dad refuses, the man starts beating him up breaking a couple of bones. When he falls as a result of this he also breaks his pelvic bone. Police is called, the man is arrested, and my dad gets taken to the hospital for a long stay and rehab to be able to walk again.
I'm pissed and cannot believe anyone who calls himself a human being can allow himself to do this to another who's that old. :-)
