World events in transit
While I was on the train to Pittsburgh, the space shuttle Columbia failed to land. This news was delivered to me by my in-laws when they picked me up at the station.
Had I been at home, I would have known minutes after it happened and probably would have had as much information as anyone could as the story unfolded. As it is, I have only heard the news through 3rd parties and haven’t even checked for myself.
I’m obviously on vacation now.

That’s an interesting way to phrase it…
“failed to land”
He didn’t drown, he failed to breathe.
He didnt jump, he just failed to stop before hitting the pavement.
