Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Kerry Collins replacing Peyton Manning is like Jack Black replacing Bono as lead singer for U2. That concert just isn't going to be the same... Who knew? Monarch butterflies are poisonous. Not so much to humans but they do have a poisonous defense against smaller predators like frogs, birds and mice... Sorry about the passing of actor Cliff Robertson. Interesting fact from his Wikipedia page - supposedly Robertson was a pilot who was flying a small craft the morning of September 11, 2001. According to the Wikipedia page Robertson was flying directly over the Twin Towers when the first plane struck... So after the Texans killed the Colts yesterday - I'd expect record numbers of people in NFL knock-out pools will be taking the Browns next week (they play Indy)... I could see going to a baseball game with a glove but I think you must have "issues" if you go to an NFL game wearing shoulder pads... Suzy Kolber's Mancave would be a good name for a fantasy football team... It is now been 10-years since 9/11 and I think commercial pilots still don't have the right to carry a firearm in the cockpit.
