shy? me?? ok so it's taken me some time to post anything--i figured most people wouldn't want to know what's going through my head (it scares me sh*tless half the time).
so for those that know me, im a huge travel freak...specifically civil aviation (check out airliners.net...it's like my morning paper...no, really, i'm serious, i read it before i read the bbc news site). imagine my dismay to find that an AF A343 had just crashed off the runway at YYZ in a heavy thunderstorm thankfully, of 309 people on board, there were NO fatalities (except for the plane of course, which i'm pretty sure is beyond repairable seeing as how it apparently split in two and was engulfed in flames for the good part of a few hours). congratulations to the crew for a good job evacuating all the passengers safely...
