Southwest Airlines- Still worth the cheap fare?
![]() |
Nola.com is on top of their shit |
Today I was reading SFAppeal when I came across something a tad surprising. Mind you, I am living under a rock. This is a proven fact. Researched and concluded by myself, because I do not keep up with the news. At. All. I don't have TV, I don't read news papers, I only skim news sites every so often, so forgive me for finding this shit a day after it actually happened:
Airline management announced this morning the grounding of 79 Boeing 737 aircrafts after a 3-foot hole ripped in the top of a plane carrying 118 passengers toward Sacramento from Phoenix, Arizona at about 3:25 p.m. Friday.
A hole. A 3-foot HOLE. Excuse me?
The plane landed a short time later in Yuma. A flight attendant and at least one passenger suffered minor injuries in the commotion, and they were treated and released once on the ground. No one was taken to a hospital, officials said
Ok so it's not a LOST type of emergency, but easily could have been. Southwest is taking the appropriate measures to repair the damage, and to ground all planes of the similar make and/or age to thoroughly inspect them. This caused major cancelations yesterday and today, as well as major flight delays, and we will probably continue to see delays in Southwest scheduled flights as the week progresses.
Read what I read at SFAppeal, as well as any other fucking news source, including Nola.com where I got the above picture amongst great detail about the flight and aftermath. Southwest probably also deserves a peak.

A spoonful...

Measurements:
A spoonful of cough syrup- the amount in which would remain in the spoon after jogging with it
A spoonful of mintchip ice cream- the maximum amount that would stay piled atop a mound while carefully eating in a calculated pattern that will allow for the ice cream to be savored without loosing any sugary deliciousness.

Oh My Science
Who the fuck reads the Miami Herald? I get my news from Facebook! Just about.. oh.. 2 minutes ago I found this gem posted by a friend:
I was like whaaaaaaaatchu talkin' 'bout Lisha? And so I googled the term "Astrology" and the Miami Herald informed me that *scientists* had it wrong; there's an extra astrological sign to add to the mix: Ofichoos... Opixtus... Ophiuchus. (It's greek for serpent-bearer)... ahem. What. The. Fuck?
Yeah, ok. I'll accept it. I'll also accept that I am no longer a pisces. Aquarius? What? So when I sing "Age of Aquarius" in the shower it'll be appropriate almost? Ef yeah! Sure, why not! I don't believe in this bullshit, anyway. This is just proof that it's always been bullshit. So stop?
I am a bit bummed that my mom is now Cancer. Cancer? Offended! My mother is no Cancer! I mean, really... does she not look like a lion???

Moral of the story:
I really don't give a shit.
Update: LOOK at this guy! Are you born between Nov 29 and Nov 17? Haha
Forget this whole changing of the alignment of the stars. I am such a Sagittarius, in no wayyyyy am I trying to be this new Ophiuchus sign. Just because the planets have changed doesn't mean i'm a whateverthefuck this new sign is, BOO! My birthday is the exact day in the middle of the sign too. Dammit astrology, you craaaazy.

Leading astrologers, after getting their collective bearings, were unified and defiant in their response: Not this time, Science.
