This happened not long ago. And Yankee Pitcher, Cory Lidle, was the pilot.

I think you mean pitcher, not picture. But that is puzzlingly sad.

Looks like he finally pitched a strike to me!

Yeah...

I'm right across from Manhatten. Thankfully, I'm not in the City today. The Path is probably chaos.

It's also raining like all get-go right now.

Yeah I wrote that too fast.

Now that is a little cruel. I know I hate the Yankees but I wouldn't say anything cruel about him.

I don't know a thing about him, other than he's a pitcher, and he flew a plane into a building. The jokes write themselves.

Then again, I'm the only person here with any semblance of cathartic humor so I guess I'll join in and play a dirge.

I hate the Yankees with a passion, but this is still sad news.

I have to admit, the first thing I thought when I heard the news that a Yankee pitcher had flown into a building was, is there any chance he was so despondant over the fact they weren't in the playoffs that he committed suicide? In a way, I hope that wasn't the reason, because if it is, he took an innocent person along with him. I wonder if we'll ever really find out just why and how this all happened.

Well it turns out the teacher was flying the plane. So he must just have had made a huge mistake or something.

I woke up yesterday to my friend saying "a plane hit a building in New York". I thought "not again..." :(

That's a pretty crappy way to spend your postseason. Poor guy.
