cating building a larger airport at nearby Williams Air Force Base but encountering opposition from local retired people concerned about the potential noise, told them at a February meeting not to worry because the airport wouldn't be built for another 20 years and "most of the people in this room will be dead."
Acting Federal Communications Commission chairman James Quello, reacting to radio shock-jock Howard Stern's statement that he -Stern- would have to answer to a higher authority than the FCC for his so called indecency, said "I wouldn't be a bit surprised if, someday, a lightning bolt comes out of the sky and hits (Stern) right in the crotch."
- From a woman's thank-you testimonial received in December by Porsche Cars North America:
  *Porsche spells safety in the most
adverse situation." The woman had been sitting in a Porsche with her boyfriend when three shots, allegedly fired at the couple by her husband from a .44-caliber Magnum, lodged in the car's interior.
In December, the California First District Court of Appeals ordered convicted probation violator Alfred Taylor to be resentenced by another judge after an incident involving his original trial judge, Joseph Carson. Immediately after receiving his sentence from Carson, Taylor has called the judge a "b——a——m——-," a "kangaroo a.-," and a "country a.- bastard," and Judge Carson had responded, "F——you, too."
In December, some of the 280 survivors (out of 340) of a Dutch charter plane that crashed in a wind gust in the resort town of
Faro, Portugal, gathered to tell their stories to reporters. Wim Kodman, 27, who is a botanist, said he was trying to calm a friend during the wind turbulence by appealing to logic. Said Kodman, "I told him a crash was improbable. I was trying to remember the exact probability when we smashed into the ground."

During a January hockey game at Madison Square Garden, the New York Ranger's apparent winning goal in a 4-3 game was disallowed when replays showed that the puck that went into the Vancouver Canuck's net with 22.3 seconds left in overtime in a 3-3 game was actually thrown in from the stands by a fan.
The Weirdo American Community
Waukesha, Wis., police, responding to a domestic disturbance in February, were confronted by a man in the dark; they thought he had a gun because they heard clicking sounds. A flashlight revealed that the weapon was a staple gun and that the man had shot several staples into his eyes.
The Least Competent People
According to The Knoxville News-Sentinel, among the inquiries received by the sheriff's department in Oak Ridge, Tenn., during the weekend of the "storm of the century" in March: One caller wanted to know how she would know when the power came back on, and another wanted to know how come his power was off when he had just seen a car go by with its lights on.
