Tuesday November 10 4:28 PM ET Lost motorist ends up on airport runway TAMPA (Reuters) - A Florida driver made one wrong turn too many and ended up on an airport runway this weekend, forcing the delay of at least two flights, airport officials said Tuesday. ''She was on a runway staring at a 737,'' Scott Loper, assistant director of operations at Tampa International Airport, said, though he noted the driver, Luz Arce, had not come within 1,000 feet of any aircraft. Airport police said that Arce drove through a closed airport gate marked with ''Do Not Enter'' signs at about 7:10 a.m. EST Sunday, ending up on the runway. Airport firefighters saw her drive through and jumped into a truck to pursue her, but could not reach her before she forced the delay of at least two flights. ''She was driving pretty quick,'' Loper said. Arce was taken into custody within a few minutes and charged with driving while intoxicated and trespassing. She told police she had got lost while driving home from a party after fighting with her boyfriend. dailynews.yahoo.com

Absolutely loved the memo. have copied and pasted into Word and will distribute to various people tomorrow as though real. Joke: A guy walks into a diner and asks for a bowl of chili. The waitress says, "The guy next to you got the last bowl." So, he gets a cup of coffee instead. Then he sees that the guy next to him has finished his meal, but the chili bowl is still full. He asks, "Are you going to eat that?" The other guy says, "No. You can have it." The guy takes it and starts to eat it. When he gets about half way down, he sees a dead mouse in it, and he pukes the chili back into the bowl. The other guy says, "That's about as far as I got, too."
