I read some time ago the woman on there that was the sister of Redd Foxxs wife. Esther (LaWanda Page) was a big comedian and at one time a fire dancer. Reading the story she was terrible at first but Redd Foxx wanted her. She couldn't do a script at all and needed to adlib so that's what she did.

You can barely breathe. How are you still going to strip clubs?

Haven't been in almost 20 years. Not a lot, but the few times I went that song was pretty popular. No idea why, totally non minority place.

The Greg Biffle prelimary crash report came out. NASCAR driver with private jet that crashed killing all on board. It was an illegal flight. The person that identified as the pilot did not have a waiver to fly without a co pilot. One other pilots did not have a type rating for that aircraft or anything near it. The other (probably Biffle) had a lot of hours but was not typed to fly as copilot or in command. Lot of stuff wsent wrong from before they got off the ground. Some recording from mics was not there but apparently they were staying low flying VFR (Visual flight rules) until they could pick up IFR (Instrument flight rules) plan to continue onward. Then they crashed. From start up they had guage warnings not matching what they were seeing and it got worse.
Near the end they had them on mic asking why not climb. Apparently they did to 4000' feet but they apparently lost sight of the ground and were no longer VFR.
I guess Greg picked it up from his former boss. Jack Rousch flew a private jet and had a number of crashes/incidents to the point many wondered how long before the FAA grounded him. Then he quit flying.

That sucks. I’ve been watching Sanford and Son ever since I was a kid and I was last watching it maybe a week or two ago. I had just looked him up and other people on the show.
You big dummy.

Engine malfunction on the ground, differing engine readouts once both were running, flew it with generators off. Aircraft requires 2 pilots, right seat wasn't rated at all.
1) Engine malfunction should be an automatic stay on the ground. They flew it anyway. Gethereitis.
2) Generators were off, instruments lost power, then the rest of the plane followed suit.
3) Full fuel, heavy lawn dart with no power = crash.
Gethereitis kills a lot of pilots and passengers.

That’s what more or less killed JFK Jr and his wife decades ago - if I recall he wasn’t properly instrument rated and they tried flying at night/foggy conditions and ended up in the ocean
