I left work to head to Kris’ to change and as I was standing on a corner waiting to cross, I saw a cab speeding towards me…. and realized I was standing directly next to a GIANT puddle. I stepped back but the cab SWERVED into the puddle intentionally, drenching me in lovely New York gutter water. A guy who was crossing the street towards me said, “Wow that cab driver was a douchebag. He was laughing!”
So here I was (am) worried about having a “Carrie White” moment later tonight when I should have been worried about a “Carrie Bradshaw” moment (opening credits).
And my apologies for two SATC references in one day….
PARIS – A reservation mix-up, an overbooking and a Brazilian cabbie’s passion for soccer are all that saved some would-be passengers on Air France flight 447 from the fate of 228 others who lost their lives in the mid-Atlantic.
For some it was a simple matter of arriving at Rio’s airport late; for Andrej Aplinc, it was because he got there early
The 39-year-old Slovenian sailor and father of two was spared because his cab driver was in a hurry to see a soccer match.
With time to spare at the airport, Aplinc, who was supposed to take Flight 447, learned there was no seat on the plane with enough legroom for him to stretch out his bum knee. But since he’d arrived early, he was able to board an earlier 4 p.m. Air France flight, which did have a roomy seat.
I can’t help but to think of Final Destination when I read about this though.

I am seeing things. I so hope you see them too.
RPattz getting ran over by a taxi!?! haha
Are Robert Pattinson’s fans capable of hurting him?
Well, maybe not intentionally!
The Twilight hottie was hit by a cab today, Thursday, while he was trying to get away from some crazy fans!
R-Patz is currently in New York City filming for his latest flick, Remember Me.
He was being escorted around noon from a bookstore on Broadway and 12th Street by a group of 5 security guards, who were trying to get him across safely to his trailer as he was being chased after by fans.
But eyewitnesses say Pattinson was clipped by a cab on his hip as he tried to make his way across.
Thankfully, he wasn’t seriously hurt, though his bodyguard was pissed.
According to reports, “It appeared as if the cab hit Rob in the hip. He stood there for a moment looking stunned. The bodyguard next to him checked if he was okay and then screamed at the fans: ‘You see what you did, you almost killed him!’ “
Ladies, please, stay 5 feet away from R-Patz at all times. His safety is a priority!
safety first.
