He (Leo, not the EMT) may also have made them wear damp bandanas to help filter our the smoke. Though obviously he wasn't paying attention to flight attendants or he would have known to first secure his own air supply before helping nearby children.

I know it is just a silly vapid local news human interest story-writing and hyperbolic headline writing, and I like to comment on that when I see it. Besides, the alternative was to talk about our Leo and I was already doing that in another thread and if I hadn't shown up to be a humorless (or am I) hardass, then this thread wouldn't be the rousing success it is. Instead just lying there with nary a reply while Moonliner was forced to wonder if he detected in the far distance a twitter of wry chuckling.

Wow. Just wow. An inspired bit of prose to be sure. A perfect way to close out this thread.

Aren't you always supposed to end it by saying "so there!" ?

There'll be none of that today! Stop it!
