FAA is reporting that everyone survived. I find it amazing that a jet can land on water, and be intact afterwards. AMAZING.

Greg was probably a passenger, noticed the plane lost its engines, rushed the cockpit, told the pilot to get out of his way, then told the co pilot, "Relax, I'm Greg Jennings."

This is too serious to joke about.

My God.
155 souls were on board.

By The way...

One of the passengers was pulled out of the river and was found to have 17 Air Sickness Bags stuffed in his pockets.

He said they are lined in wax and great for packing lunches in.

He was wearing a Vikings Jersey.

Gotta love the squirrels!
The No. 1 cause of power outages in my hometown is pesky little squirrels. They sneak into the transformers and BAM! Lights out.
