Duct-taped at 30,000 feet...

It's happened again. This time on a flight from Philadelphia to Miami, 22 year old passenger Maxwell Berry (allegedly) groped 2 female flight attendants and assaulted a male flight attendant.

What's to be done? Duct tape to the rescue.
Berry faces 3 counts of misdemeanor battery.



Alcohol was involved.
Misdemeanor? I think they were easy on him.

Widows Peak...

"A Widow’s peak is a well-known English term for a V-shaped protrusion of hair at the forehead. There has been a widespread superstition recorded in Britain, Ireland and North America. It was probably at one time a common belief throughout the English-speaking world, that a woman with this shape of forehead hair is destined to outlive her husband."

Actress Yvonne De Carlo played Lily Munster in the 1960's TV sitcom may have been the first woman I noticed to have a Widow's Peak. De Carlo who died at the age of 84 didn't have a Widow's Peak in real life. A small peak via wig and makeup complete with white streaks.

Much of Yvonne's career happened before I was born, but I see from the documentaries she was quite a beautiful woman and appeared in many films. She was in the right place at the right time when color came to movies and earned the title of Technicolor Queen.

I foresee a booster shot in your future...

As time goes on, your immunity will drop and it would be necessary to have a booster shot.
That's my take on the subject.

Coming to you LIVE from...

It's been a few years since I visited my brother in Dayton, Ohio.
The last time was for the funeral of his wife, about 4 years ago.
I was running out of excuses and got on a plane and made the trip. I got to see nieces, nephews and their kids. Today it was happy times for all of us.
We left hot humid weather in South Florida and the first day here was highs in the 80's with low humidity. Tonight it's 67 which would be considered winter in my hometown.

I'm here for the weekend and have a list of 'things to do, places to go and people to see' that includes the aircraft museum with it's iMAX theater and 3D movies.

Miami apartment building collapsed...

News Thursday that an apartment building in Surfside (part of Miami Beach, Greater Miami area) collapsed. It had been the subject of at least one lawsuit over outer wall maintenance and attracted the attention of scientists due to land erosion since the 1990's.

Four dead, 35 survivors pulled from the rubble and 99 people unaccounted for.

Panko...

I know what I like and don't like when it comes to foods. With limits, I'll try new things from time to time. It was time to buy another package of Italian bread crumbs and Panko style came into my radar.
Without a doubt, organic chicken breasts dipped in eggs and rolled in Panko then pan fried was 'totally awesome man'

Unlike the photo, it's best to cut the chicken into thin strips so the Panko covers every piece!

Let the hacking begin...

Less than a month ago, part of Champlain Towers South in Surfside (Miami Beach) Florida collapsed and the city is warning families of the victims to follow up on identity theft and hacking as they are going after assets of those who perished in the tragedy.

autopilot...

Lots of websites are designed to run without administrator intervention. One place I've traveled to verifies all new members and photos only for minimal compliance that a person (and not a bot) is on the other end. That doesn't stop new members from using stolen photos of famous people as 20% of the new members are fakes.
Other than a casual visit by administration, CS is in perpetual autopilot mode. The site exists with 1 week probation for new members and blocking some words that are commonly used but considered offensive...
Examples:
A female chicken is a hen and the male is a c*ck. Oops, I mean rooster!
(I'm told that 'c' word is used in the bible but not allowed on many public forums)
Dogs? Bastard is the make dog and b*tch is the female.
I haven't checked and possibly they get blocked.
But... 'shit' gets past the word filter!

Back to the point of this blog. As mortal members we don't know who actually runs the place. A main moderator and some other staff, possibly a programmer or two is what I envision. Months ago, the moderator wiped out dozens of blogs and posted his own to say the site needed to go in a different direction (with less blogs of a certain type) and for a while blogs that didn't comply disappeared. I checked yesterday and the moderator hasn't logged in (to that profile) in months. Reporting bogus profiles is something I do often and going back to see they disappeared within a few days was normal. Something changed as no less than 30 scammer profiles are still here. Some haven't been back since they were created and others are still active. This leads me to believe there is more autopilot than administrative intervention.

That was the beginning of the end on another site. Let's hope it's not a repeat of history on this one.

The Surfside Condo takedown...

So far it's 24 dead at the Champlain Towers South condo in Surfside where a section collapsed last week.
Lots of news (and fears) about the approaching tropical storm, but South Florida had 2 days of perfect weather. Rescue work was suspended last night and the remaining portion of the building was taken down around 10:30pm in a controlled demolition.

The thought of that sickens me.

The official statement was between 10:00pm and 3:00am
You couldn't wait... could you?

I read the collapse was to be away from the area where the first section fell so it didn't hamper continued rescue in finding as many dead as they could. At this point, there is no hope of recovering anyone alive.

I'm thinking of the residents to the 100+ apartments that remained standing. They were evacuated and not given a second to take any belongings with them.
Important things like identification, documents, jewelry, cash, keys all remained inside.

The whole thing was handled poorly. It's a fiasco to a degree beyond comprehension.

Both sides of the beachfront have been barricaded and the waters patrolled by coastguard. I haven't read anything about the


More to come...
