San Diego military jet crash follow-up
Back in December, iReporters provided "News To Me" with an almost TOO-close view of the devastation caused when a military jet crashed into a suburban San Diego neighborhood.

Back in December, iReporters provided "News To Me" with an almost TOO-close view of the devastation caused when a military jet crashed into a suburban San Diego neighborhood. The pilot ejected and survived, but, on the ground, one man’s entire family was killed.
I know I will never forget how I felt watching Dong Yun Yoon talking to the media the next day. It had only been hours since learning that he’d lost his wife, daughters and mother-in-law to the crash. With emotions still so raw, he came out and eulogized his wife and daughters… and then, he asked us to pray for the pilot as well. His press conference was one of the most touching and “real” things I have ever seen on TV.
"Horrible thing to happen" watch »
The Marines have been investigating what went wrong that day… and have determined a number of things, including deferred maintenance and faulty decisions by the pilot, contributed to the accident. Four people have been fired… and nine others have been relieved of duty.

A Rude Guide to a New You
How To Stop Worrying About the Economy and Quit Your Job For Real Brooklynite Vince Lombardi may be credited with coining the phrase, "Winners never quit, and quitters never win," but all that says is that Lombardi never had a soul-sucking, ass-puckering, emotional-equilibrium-destroying job that forces you to question the ultimate wisdom of the panhandlers and their canned subway sob stories.
