...or is this blog dead?
In attempts to jumpstart this forum back to life...
First, snakes on a plane, then scorpions on a plane...now squirrels on a plane.
It was reported that an American Airline flight from Tokyo to Dallas was diverted to Honolulu after pilots reported that they heard a rodent skittering above their heads in the cockpit, amidst a field of wires and controls behind the cosmetic paneling. The perpetrator, a squirrel, was later captured. It has yet to be revealed how the animal gained access to the airplane in the first place.
Sounds like a good call to me. Considering the cause of SwissAir Flight 111's crash in Nova Scotia almost 10 years ago, electrical issues and failures are nothing to play around with on commercial airliners.
Perhaps these stories validate a recent dream of mine being trapped with a nest of Black Widow Spiders on a plane...yuck!

It's not dead. I've had a bit of writer's block recently, but not to worry, I'm starting to recover.
