60s Footage of the Playboy Jet

Everything in this clip is phallic just by association. You almost can't help but notice.

The music creeps me out too. Trippy.

So, What Did YOU Do This Christmas?

This guy put a camera on his remotely operated plane and let his kids shoot fireworks at it, set to a song by AC/DC, ftw!

Also, he's an unemployed chemical engineer, so hire him. Maybe he'll let you shoot fireworks at his kids and film it.

I Can't Read My Computer Screen In The Sunshine

That is why I haven't been posting as much lately. Expect a pretty sporadic summer from me as we will be traveling a lot and golfing and seeing as many friends as possible. I love you guys but you live too far away! So don't yell at me.

Plane Crashes Into the Hudson

Not again. Say a prayer because as I write this people are fighting for their lives after their plane crashed into the waters of the Hudson river. The good news is that every boat in the area immediately responded to the site. It looks like a small commercial airliner and it is sitting on top of the water right now.

UPDATE: The USAirways Airbus320 on its way to North Carolina hit a flock of geese and the amazing pilot managed such a soft landing that the ferries that got there right after the crash were able to save everybody! Some were on the inflated slide and others had managed to crawl on top of the wing before it sank. A totally fabulous effort by everyone. Yay, something turns out to have a happy ending for a change!

A Plane That's Too Quiet?

Pilots of the new Airbus A380 say that they can't get to sleep on their breaks because they can hear everything that is going on in the cabin. The 4 engines are so quiet that you can hear conversations that are going on several rows behind you, good if you're an eavesdropper, bad if you are next to obnoxious people who won't stfu. So now they have to spend more money to put in an ambient noise system which will surely be passed on to you, the consumer.

Yeah right, like I know anyone who can afford to fly on an Airbus.
