Today, I will use only my Shackleton icon in honor of the pilot who landed a plane with no engines in the middle of the Hudson without anyone dying.

Truly, truly a Shackletonian feat. Chesley Sullenberger III, I salute you. And am impressed with your name.




Also I'm really excited to have such a fitting opportunity to call something Shackletonian. ::eats celebratory fruit roll-up::

In other news, my appetite is back, and it celebrated this yesterday by craving milk the whole day.

My favourite part of that whole story was that the pilot's name was Chesley Sullenberger III. It still makes me smile whenever I see it written down! They just don't give names like that anymore. XD

I KNOOOOOW. How is anyone named that? It's magnificent. Actually, I had to look it up to write this entry and I had a little trouble because none of the articles put his name in the headlines and then I found it and I was like "oh. That's why." XD
