2025 Question a Day

[pattrose]

15. On this day in 2009 Chesley Sullenberger, known as "Sully," successfully landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River. Have you seen the Tom Hanks film Sully?

Yes, I’ve seen the movie. It was excellent. Tom Hanks is a wonderful actor.


16. How often do you eat out at restaurants or cafés? We usually go once every two weeks. Nothing fancy.

I keep wanting to see that movie, but I just haven't managed it yet. I do love Tom Hanks though.

I usually go out to eat maybe once a month. I have a retired group I meet up with for lunch. This month I'm skipping it though because of all the bad weather. Plus, they picked a place all the way across town that only serves breakfast for what I think are very expensive prices.

Speaking of breakfast and high prices, I just spent $6 for a dozen eggs. Yikes!!! Grocery prices are out of sight!

To;d bought 18 pack eggs and it was 7.49. How are we suppposed to make it every month?

Sully is Very good.

The grocery prices are really out of control. I'm so grateful I don't have children to feed. We're being gouged on so many levels for gas and food. Instead of addressing that, politicians instead focus on renaming the Gulf of Mexico or banning Tic Tok. And don't get me started on the idiocy of buying Greenland and Panama or making Canada part of the U.S.

I just got notice that your story is out. I know what I’ll be doing.

Cool. Enjoy.

I saw a documentary about the crash after I'd seen the film, and I thought Tom Hanks did a really good job of being respectful about playing a real-life person. He caught the calmness of the real Sully well.
