    Jousting at Floyd Bennett Field

    There will be a Renaissance Fair this weekend at Floyd Bennett Field. It will be held on the field adjacent to the wounded Concorde. The Festival is free. I just wonder if they will use the Concorde as the target for the jousting? I won't be attending in any case. There is supposed to be stifling heat and I'd rather not see Concorde in that condition.

    Did you see any of the baseball statues? I understand they're being removed as we speak. They had a great Statue painted in Mets colors at Penn Station. There were 42 in all. I saw 38. I couldn't get to Liberty or Ellis Island.

    Found this flyer. Doesn't seem that it's going to be as involved as the one in Tuxedo. http://www.aviatorsports.com/download/r ... .16.08.pdf

    Is it just me, or do those guys on the flyer make you think of Monty Python?

    Monty Python, yes!

    Concorde gets its nose chopped off and respond, "Merely a flesh wound!"

    Don't stand behind Concorde in case she "farts in your general direction." That might be painful.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
