Now I have seen and heard everything. Yesterday, Air Force 1 flew over New York City, really low, scaring the beJesus out of thousands of office workers downtown who were in eye shot of this troubling visual. Buildings on both sides of the Hudson River were evacuated and many thought they were doomed. Come to find out that Air Force 1 is like Lindsay Lohan, complete with publicist. The seemingly out of control airplane being followed by a fighter jet was in the midst of a photo op for Barak Obama’s plane. I…mean…what?!? A photo op? So now everyone and every-THING needs a head shot? On the eve of the 100 Days marathon, how annoying and pretentious is that? And to be caught in the middle of that nonsense is embarrassing.

And wait, the Department of Defense were the masterminds of these shenanigans. Might I suggest focusing your efforts on Federal Aviation and get those Jet Blue planes running on time. Honestly, I am glad that Fox TV is sticking to its guns and airing American Idol, rather than another publicity-fest for the endless 100 Days, which feels like 100 Years with the amount of bla bla it is getting.
