Passenger jet breakes in two! How safe are those planes we ride everyday?

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Officials say a U.S. team is expected soon in the South American nation of Guyana to probe the crash of a Boeing 737 jetliner that all 163 people aboard survived.

Authorities so far have given little idea about the cause of Saturday's crash. The Caribbean Airlines plane ran off the end of a runway at Guyana's main airport and broke in two. About 30 people had to be treated at a local hospital, including the pilot.

The airline is largely owned by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and its prime minister has visited the crash site. Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is worried that the accident will hurt tourism to the Caribbean, a region that depends heavily on the industry.

Oh, perhaps you can clarify this for me, then:

What exactly did you mean by this statement?

Maybe 159 was actually an SAT score.

It's mind-blowing how someone can contradict himself at every step of an argument yet believe he's somehow proving everyone wrong.

Maybe you have to be in the 99.995th percentile in terms of intellect to understand such a concept. Oh well.

Please tell me you are posting out of jealousy and not hatred and bigotry. Because you keep posting and then accuse me for keeping it up because I simply reply.

When my older daughter was about 22 she brought a friend to the house on the way to a trip to the local river hang out. Grilling, drinking, camping, swimming. So her friend was in a tiny dress with a string bikini underneath. My daughter went to the back of the house to grab something, leaving her friend, the dog and I in the living room.

The friend was obviously nervous around Gordo and he was checking her out. She looked out the window to pass time. Gordo walked over to her when she was turned around, stuck his muzzle up under her dress, and gave her a long slow lick up her inner thigh and around one round ass cheek. She squealed and flushed, then giggled.

That's my boy.

I'm not posting out of jealousy, nor hatred, nor bigotry. And I do not accuse of you of keeping it up, I accuse of lying when you say you don't care. I simply use the fact that you keep replying as proof in my accusation. Someone with an IQ of 159 should really have no problem making that connection.

Also, can you please clear some old PMs in your Inbox? I was trying to ask you something without you feeling like you're being ganged up on, but alas your box is full. I promise to keep it civil.

His posting reasons probably come from annoyance, awe, or sheer entertainment.

Yeah, this thread was dead this morning. I thought you had finally had enough.

"Thought" and "I" in the same sentence, loochy? You are getting bold!

Why did you ignore post #365, Frankie, and chose to insult someone (rather poorly) instead?

Yes I did and I do not need to explain my every decision to every idiot here.

Airliners can snap in half in mid-flight? Shit. That isn't good.
