I woild probably like prison food. I imagine Salisbury steak everyday.

Same. Once in a while I buy a $2 pack of bologna, and for a week eat it with cheap American cheese on cheap sliced bread.

I call them prison sandwiches.

Concerning Kobe Bryant death. Helicopter pilot was at fault.

Quote:
NTSB Vice Chairman Bruce Landsberg said there was a long history of pilots desperately trying to fulfill the requirements of a star, referencing previous crashes that killed music artists Buddy Holly, Patsy Cline, Aaliyah and Stevie Ray Vaughan.


Consider if you become famous or important, that you could be endangering your own life if they feel enough pressure to please that they take dangerous risks.

Super Bowl Ratings Crash to Lowest Level Since 1969, Least Watched Since 2006

Maybe people just did not want to watch a white QB during black history month?

It was a boring game. Quite clear early on who was going to win. I tuned out before halftime.

I was also underwhelmed by the half-time show.

Reminds me of the Will Rodgers crash in Alaska
Probably taking all kinds of risks flying all over Alaska back then
The last safe landing was because they were lost and needed directions
They landed on a lake in the middle of nowhere to ask for directions from the locals
The pilot was the best in the world despite getting lost and having only 1 eye.
They got the direction they needed to go, took off, engine trouble, crashed into the lake, no survivors

I have flown many small planes and have only been in a helicopter once. I do not like helicopters. About 10 years ago I was offered the opportunity to get my helicopter license for free and not have to pay for the fuel. I turned down the opportunity and would be happy to never be in a helicopter again.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.
