Missing...

Missing: One Fuji FinePix A340 digital camera. Last seen in aircraft 413 at Boise on 8/16/05. I used it on our turn through LAX, left it in the pouch on the first officer's side, and forgot to transfer it to my flight bag before leaving the airplane that night. Yeah, I'm a bonehead. Here's hoping it gets returned.

I got some bad news today. Freddy, a FO I know, was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident in Seattle this Tuesday. Apparently he and his wife were on the freeway when one of the tires blew, causing him to lose control. He's been unconscious ever since; at least one operation has taken place to relieve swelling of the brain. His wife is in even worse condition; her situation is extremely critical. Not much more is known; like I said, I only just learned about it today.

Freddy, we're all pulling for you. You're one seniority number I don't want to move up.

Prayers are with Freddy and his wife. I just lost a good friend - I hope they pull through.

I hope your friend and his wife pull through- in my prayers. Were you in Victoria,BC on the 22nd on a bus? I swear I saw someone who looked liked you on the bus (#70 from downtown to the ferry terminal)

Nope, only place in Canada they've sent me recently is Edmonton. Apparently there's a Canadian Sammy clone running around Victoria... :-)
