Cyber Salt March 3, 2009 Here is today's CleanLaugh - "Preliminary Report"
Preliminary Accident Report FT 1549. Captain held responsible for unauthorized actions which resulted in crash says F.A.A..
Subject: NTSB Report on Flight 1549
US Airways violated Federal migratory bird regulations by hunting geese with an A320 Airbus jetliner, claim anonymous government sources. The pilot of flight 1549, Air Force veteran and avid hunter Chesley B. Sullenberger, tried combining both of his interests by bagging a brace of geese over the wetlands near New York's LaGuardia airport after takeoff, on his way to Charlotte, North Carolina.
The imported European $77 million A320 airliner is not certified for either waterfowl or upland bird hunting, so it was not surprising that the aircraft malfunctioned. When he realized that both New York and New Jersey State Game and Fish enforcement officers would soon be approaching, Captain Sullenberger unsuccessfully attempted to hide the plane in the Hudson River .
The crew and 150 passengers were chilled and shaken but unhurt. Most were simply grateful to avoid spending the weekend in Charlotte .
National Transportation Safety Board inspectors rushed to the scene, and reportedly found no Duck Stamps on the downed aircraft's fuselage. Captain Sullenberger has not been charged, but is being held incommunicado at an undisclosed location.
PETA is urging the government to prosecute the pilot for double honkercide and poaching, and the animal rights group is expected to file a civil suit on behalf of the flock. The two victims were undocumented aliens, according to sources close to the investigation, Canada geese who had over-stayed their visas. Their goose gang scandalized their quiet Queens community by squatting in local cemeteries and golf courses, parking on the grass, cooking strange-smelling food and throwing wild parties late into the night. Neighbors say police dogs were called out on several occasions.
Such incidents have triggered a wave of anti-Canada goose sentiment, but at this time revenge or hate crime motives are not suspected in the US Airways bird bashings.
Forensic examination of the avian corpses continues, and technicians are analyzing the two cadavers under heat with chestnuts, prunes, and Armagnac. NTSB inspectors have contributed a supply of testing fluid, a 2005 Zind-Humbrecht Riesling from Alsace . We will update this story as entrees details become available.

The following is a recent e mail from my friend Michael / who had recent prayer
request for his wife Wendy / who was diagnosed with cancer on kidney and had
surgery today.
Text of e mail
Just talked to the surgeon. Wendy is out of surgery. He feels that the cancer had not metastasized outside of the kidney into the surrounding tissue. He took a lot of the associate lymph nodes, but said he didn’t feel like there was any cancer in any of them, either. He feels very confident that they got it all, and Wendy’s prognosis is very good.
Praise and thanks be to God! And thank you all for all your prayers and support!
Michael
