RIP Steve Fosset?

#1 Post by tanstaafl2 » Fri Feb 15, 2008 9:49 pm

Millionaire adventurer Steve Fossett, who risked his life seeking to set records in high-tech balloons, gliders and jets, was declared dead Friday, 5 months after he vanished while flying in an ordinary small plane.

What happened remains a mystery, hence the question mark.

Maybe he is living somewhere anonymously and wants to have the ultimate adventure, coming back from the dead.

He's hiding out in a log cabin in Coeur d'Alene sipping Chardonnay with Jimmy Hoffa, D.B. Cooper, and that judge from New York whose name escapes me right now. :P

Judge Crater:

Joseph Force Crater (January 5, 1889 – date of death unknown) was a judge in New York City who suddenly disappeared on the night of August 6, 1930. He was last seen leaving a restaurant and entering a taxi. He had stated earlier that he was planning to attend a Broadway show. His disappearance became one of the most famous in American history and pop culture, and earned him the title of "The Missingest Man in New York".
