Birdstrike!
Scientists at the Smithsonian are trying to identify the species of bird responsible for bringing down flight 1549 last week, although we here at Me & Vinnie suspect we've found a photograph of the culprits.
To identify a birdstrike culprit, scientists rely on samples of snarge.
Another new vocabulary word for the day: Milliner
The crew from Philippe restaurant was here to celebrate Chinese New Year. Next time you're in Manhattan check out this restaurant. The food is fantastic. We recommend the green prawn.
