FAA Computer Problems

So here I am at Newark waiting to board my flight. CNN is broadcasting relentlessly about delayed flights due to an FAA computer glitch.

"This is not a safety issue......at this point."

"It is unlikely planes in the air low on fuel would not be able to land before they crash."

Holy fuck! I never would have even thought about that!

Fucking CNN! Do I board?

I ended up sitting on the tarmac for an hour because 2 planes requested emergency landings and we had to stand by!!!

I'm still alive so far. If I don't make it, I love you guys.

Make sure you play Name That Tune before you go out in a blaze of glory.
