July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
| What are your thoughts on the recent airplane and the helicopter in the DC area? Do you believe there are going to more of these tragedies or less? ![Merit Badge in BCoF 2

Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-BCoF_2-1901868_14.gif) Hi.Early yesterday morning I went to NBC news on my Kindle. A reporter was telling that he had listened to a tape about conversations between air traffic controllers and helicopter pilots and airplane pilots in which; both were well aware of where their aircraft were situated in the sky. Then the horror happened, and air traffic controllers could not decern how it happened. The reporter at that time acknowledged that what he heard was not yet available to the news media. The news conferences I watched later in the day did not refer to or acknowledge these taped conversations. As of last night, the earlier report was actually still listed on Kindle NBC news availabilities as a report. Whenever, I watch or hear of tragedies in the news I am sincerely in mourning for the lost souls. Their time on the earth was up with a horrifying suddenness. As to the second part of your question, I prefer to wait and watch. Weather here is raining on top of several foot of snow. Now slush. Yuk. |
