The Power of Twitter

An US Airways flight plunged into the Hudson river outside of Manhattan this afternoon around 3:30-45pm. Here are the details of the first photo (pictured above) of the crash:

Janis Krums from Sarasota, Florida posts the first photo of U.S. Airways flight 1549 on Twitter from his iPhone. Thirty-four minutes after Janis posted his photo, MSNBC interviewed him live on TV as a witness. News coverage at Google. TV reports suggest that everyone survived the crash.

The citizen journalism capability with technology is unbelievable.

The NY Times is reporting that everyone survived the crash.

UPDATE: More photos of the crash and I have no idea how their was not a single life lost.

NYC Boots Poon

My poon ninja hunting skills are well documented here, here and here. My recent trip up to the fashionable Manhattan provided me an opportunity to seek a new type of pooners: NYC Boots Poon.











Yes, I am one dirty ole bastard but my better half, Miss So Belle, begrudgingly participated with me in this photo activity so I feel slightly vindicated/cleaner. Now, the hostage fee for my poon hunting vice is to hook her up with Uggs boots for Xmas. I believe this is a fair deal.

Oh, there is much more to come NYC poon forthcoming in future posts.

Cougar Speed Dating

My boy BC sent me this video link of a Speed Dating Club in NYC for super rich Rolls Royce Cougars only. Every Coug was vetted to have assets of at least 4 million and earn 500k a year.

5 thousand men under 35 competed for the 25 slots to meet these rolls royces and be lucky enough to be potential prey someday.



Here is my favorite Cougar website, the grand daddy of them all, Urban Cougar.

Check out this sign up form to win the opportunity to be a Cougar Snack.

CNN has another video of the event and even promotes the word, "Cougar."

This video sums up New York City pretty damn well and it is freaking hilarious. Thanks to my hipster buddy, Brooklyn Joe, for the video.
