Still no sign of the airline captain who produced that miracle landing on the Hudson river in New York last week.
I wonder where he can be.
It's most odd.
Why, it's as if he's not being allowed out in public.
Perhaps he keeps bumping into things.
Or maybe someone is afraid he might say something someone doesn't want him to say.
Perhaps he might inadvertently let slip something indicating his planes two engines simultaneously shut down not because of a bird strike but because Al Qaeda has infiltrated airline maintenance crews and is once more back in the aviation mass murder business.
That sort of news would have put quite a dampner on President Obama's inauguration shindig.
Not to mention casting the decision to close Guantanamo Bay in its true light.
The Captain has not been seen.
But statements attributed to him describing this most improbable bird strike are already being distributed.
What possible motive could there be then for keeping the Captain himself out of the public eye?
Let him speak.
Let's hear what he's got to say.
The time is now.
