Along the line of firsts — I was on my first airplane (an hour into the trip) where an engine failed. (In interest of keeping you from getting all worked up — let me just say it was no big deal, I’m writing about it, right?) Anyway, so I’m half-way between Albany and Denver 30 some-odd thousand feet in the air, when I notice the plane is turning around. Normally this isn’t something I would notice because my head is usually buried in a book, but during this turn it caused the sun to shine directly in my face. When that happened I found myself wondering, “Why is the sun all of … Read More »
