Same here...Nicely put.

Not trying to be funny, but I never thought I'd hear the term "steal a plane" in any other capacity than the song Next To You. It's a crazy world out there.

I think she was headed to Dallas the other day -- not sure for how long. I just dropped a note on her facebook asking her to check in.

I'm safe. We are all safe. Looks like one person still missing and pilot death. Our emergency/first responders’ team was put on call and we were on hold for about an hour until the scene was assessed for any biohazard debris or large casualties. No large casulties so we were NOT deployed. Whewh! Sad and very anxious time for fire and police teams. All communication to essential personnel seems to have come across very quickly.
My retired FBI dad says that there are no reports of agent or FBI personnel injuries.
Hugs to you all! Jenny

Glad to hear you're safe, Jenny!

It's a miracle there weren't more casualties considering how much damage that little plane did to that building.

Con, you are NOT kidding about the level of destruction and limited casualties. I drove by the building today and it is horrifying! One person caused such destruction, just one person and threatened so many lives.
I'm grateful to you all and your well wishes. Thank you.
