This is the tracking of the plane that just crashed in Brazil. Looks terrifying. May those who died, rest in peace.
@elsa Oh my god. Those poor people. They probably knew that was going to be their last minute but a minute is all they had.
@rusalka It looks to me like something stalled... they might have thought they recovered from the drop... and then, dead drop.
That tracking kills me. Yes, it was Boeing.
Oh my God. The boys chat, I hang in. They are talking about erections under water, like scuba diving. ha ha ha! Men!
I am not sure if there is anyone here who can remember and appreciate this, but yesterday, my husband went to an old people exercise class... first time, taught by a gal who is 80!
That's not the point.
She's been teaching this class for 25 years; she said the goal of the class was to "continue breathing". She explained, she used her music for the class...
So he's there... first time he's ever been to something like this and guess what comes on?
Slay.
I remember this song as a sort of theme song for you two.
Must be a strange song for an exercise class.
I really do miss the aqua exercise classes I took. The Y hasn’t reopened the pool.
@sue-ellen Well, it's got that beat...
One time, my husband was headed for MN. He called me and asked me to fly and meet him. It was the day before the day he wanted to meet.
I searched for the cost and found a very affordable flight, like it was sitting there, waiting for me. Bought it.
Flew to MN the next day and rented a car. My husband was in a truck and could not alter anything. We were to meet at a truck stop.
I pulled in to the truck stop and rolled the window down, even though if was pretty cold. Band of Gold was blasting in the parking lot, from the fuel island speakers. The song was already a *thing*. This was also when I saw my husband pull off on the exit ramp. I knew it was him, because he was hauling insulation - wrapped in PINK. They'd been teasing him on the cb, all day. Something else!
I don't know how we could randomly meet like this. My husband compared it to throwing two darts, both hit.
But there is more..
We were staying with a military friend of his; they had plans, so we were to be alone. We thought!
Instead, we drove to their house and they wanted to do a city tour... what can we say, but yes?
Of all things, they drove us to see the Cathedral in Saint Paul. We'd just got back together after 23 years... this was a thing with us, so we just looked at each other, in the back seat, with our eyes, wide.
Then our host decided we should go inside - who does this? Manners dictated, this had to be done... we all walked to one of the entrances and there were some people hanging on the steps. "There's a wedding going on," one of them said.
My husband and I turned on our heels. Our host said, "So what! This is a Catholic church. It's always open.
My husband and I, side-eyein'.
We came up the steps, walked through the doors an just walked a few yards, to find ourselves, standing at the back of this HUGE wedding, just as this couple said, "I do."
I am pretty sure, this is when we both knew, this time, we'd be getting married.
I'm going to go to the exercise thing with my husband next week. Apparently, there are four old women there...making remarks.
For one thing, they don't like his beard. "I don't like beards. Are you going to shave that in November?"
His beard is excellent, by the way. My hair lady complimented it... it's is mostly still black with grey patches that match up.
One of the ladies is called, "Blueberry Yogurt Queen". I don't know why, but she is really called this, so okay!
One of them insisted he help her two her car. He complied and she told him to stay there and make sure she got in okay. She complied with that as well.
He is candid to say, they talk about women stuff, so he tunes them out, automatically. Then they include him and he's startled.
Example, they asked him if he looked in the mirror...?
I just found out, the lady who runs the exercise class, recites psalms as they stretch.
I'm goin'! I've got to see this, firsthand.
That break dancer is trolling the whole world.
