cK’s personal playground

A few weeks ago, Hank Brockett - a reporter for The MidWeek News - contacted me a few weeks ago to a couple questions on Garrett Wolfe and why I created the fan-site.

I thought that maybe a few sentences would get published, but much to my surprise, everything I said made it to the press!

Thanks to the coverage, I was actually contacted by an old high school friend who I haven’t talked to in about 10 years. Apparently, he was going through his morning routine, when he opened up the paper and saw my picture.

WOW! What a headline, eh?

So, basically… there was a flight from Washington Reagan National Airport heading for Dallas/Fort Worth that had to make an emergency landing at Nashville International Airport. The pilot requested the landing after some passengers reported smelling burnt matches.

The plane landed safely and was met by the FBI, Transportation Safety Administration and airport authority.

From USATODAY:

The passengers and five crewmembers were brought off the plane, together with all the luggage, to go through security checks again. Bomb-sniffing dogs found spent matches.

If you’re gonna be stealing something via concealment in your trousers, a guitar is probably not the way to go…

DE QUEEN, Ark. — The guitar-shaped bulge in Morgan Conatser’s clothing tipped off a music store owner that there might be a crime in progress. Clifton Lovell, owner of Guitars and Cadillacs on U.S. Highway 71 in De Queen, was talking with a customer last week when he saw Conatser, 29, walking out of the store.
