Damascus trip was great.

Bike ride was almost zero effort. Maybe 2 miles of level ground, the rest of the 17 miles was downhill. You just coasted and tolerated 15 years olds whizzing by you like the burden on society they really are. Very enjoyable though.

Also the Grayson Highlands State Park - the Rhodadendron (sp?) Trail , you only have to hike a couple of miles to get to the wild ponies, who aren't so wild anymore thanks to everyone feeding them. Go to the food city the night before the hike and grab a bag of apples. Its a fun hike.

Think we'll go back Thanksgiving weekend when there are no crowds

I wonder if the reporter ran his original story thru ChatGPT and asked how he could spice it up a little...

California man choked, attacked Frontier Airlines flight attendants after weekend at Disneyland, DOJ says

Charles Angel Salva allegedly screamed, 'We are all going to hell,' 'This airplane is going down,' before altercation

Just after takeoff, as the plane was below 10,000 feet and climbing, flight attendants noticed that the oxygen masks in one row of the middle of the aircraft were out of the overhead compartment.

The passenger said Salva pulled the oxygen masks down from the overhead compartment and got his hand stuck. He then began yelling obscenities and said, "We are all going to hell" and "This airplane is going down," according to court documents.

A flight attendant restrained him as he tried to grab passengers, authorities said. Salva then allegedly ran toward the back of the aircraft and grabbed the lanyard around a flight attendant's neck and said, "I’m going to choke this b----," while trying to choke her.

He also pushed another flight attendant "with force" and said he was going to kill everybody, federal prosecutors said.

Passengers tried to restrain Salva as he kicked the second flight attendant in the leg. The plane was diverted to Ontario International Airport in Ontario, California, where authorities boarded the plane and saw passengers holding him down.

A passenger told investigators they were flying back to San Francisco with Salva and his 3-year-old daughter after spending the weekend at Disneyland. On Sunday, Salva left his daughter with the unnamed passenger and their family and then disappeared, court documents state.

The passenger said they later received a call from the Anaheim Police Department informing them that Salva had been found covered in sewage at a liquor store.

During a police interview, Salva allegedly said, "I’m a child molester," and that he had molested his 3-year-old daughter multiple times before losing his custody rights.

He allegedly admitted to taking ecstasy before boarding the plane. He also said he thought everyone was trying to get him to admit his crimes, so he tried to pull the emergency flight button so that the plane would crash, authorities said.

He assaulted the flight attendants because he didn't want anyone to know he was a pedophile and that he heard voices saying words that triggered thoughts of him being a pedophile, he allegedly told police.

Salva faces up to 20 years in federal prison.

Most of the youtubes on this incident disallowed comments from the peanut gallery. This one included them



I liked the one where they said... "You had ONE JOB!"

That's how I feel about IB's posts...

[innocentbystander]

No you don't. You don't feel that way about my posts because you said you don't read them.

[Jungle Rat]

[Jungle Rat]

Them long winded ones go right by me. I can take a sentence or 2 of your bullshit.

[innocentbystander]

[Jungle Rat]

Nope. Just don't wanna waste my time on horse shit.

Water spouts

Far out on the desert to the north dustspouts rose wobbling and augered the earth and some said they'd heard of pilgrims borne aloft like dervishes in those mindless coils to be dropped broken and bleeding upon the desert again and there perhaps to watch the thing that had destroyed them lurch onward like some drunken djinn and resolve itself once more into the elements from which it sprang. Out of that whirlwind no voice spoke and the pilgrim lying in his broken bones may cry out and in his anguish he may rage, but rage at what? And if the dried and blackened shell of him is found among the sands by travelers to come yet who can discover the engine of his ruin?
