And so a "company in Las Vegas" bought one, and this supposedly involved a rich idiot who liked to just "take 'er out for a spin" every now and then. Blah blah blah poor life choices blah blah blah Darwin, and BOOM.
I was actually asleep when it went KBLOOMSKI; but the neighbors have been having some construction done, so I just sort of figured the sound was their builderslave dropping something, and I rolled over and went back to sleep; but then the very unusual and persistent sounds of a rescue helicopter buzzing the area (looking for the ejected pilot?) woke me right up. Helicopters flying low are very rare here (no LAPD here!), much less one making the angry-engine sounds of having to fight to stay up in a blizzard.
Still, the sheer nastiness of the blizzard kept me in the whole day.
I went to the supermarket today, and the whole area behind the supermarket, where the crash happened, was cordoned off, with camo-suit guys running around. And it smelled a bit of jet fuel. And I couldn't take my usual stairstreet home, because apparently the bottom of it was pretty zorched from the crash! And so it was all roped off. That was weird.
