Planes, Trains & Automobiles... oh yeah, boats too...

If you think about the mode of transportation we take every year and the tragedies that happen to that mode of transportation, you would think that everybody would walk to thier destination.

Take the Cruise Industry. The latest tragedy to this mode of transportation is the fact that if somebody wacked you on the high seas, dumped your ass in the drink and voila... perfect crime. The investigation into the recent disappearances of passengers on cruise lines is pretty poor. Since these accidents (or not) happen in open oceans, juristiction is non-existant. Plus the ship you are getting on isn't even registered as a United States vessel.

Let's look at the Airline industry. I just watched a show on television about a flight in Hawaii. This happened in 1988. The roof flies off the goddamn plane at 23,000 ft. Thank the lord that only one person died. This flight attendant was sucked out of the plane. Think of all the accidents that happen in this industry.

Trains.... The fatalities in this industry are not the fault of the train industry but because some idiot thinks they can beat the train.

Automobiles... do I have to say more???

So the next time you plan a vacation. Don't watch these documentaries about any type of travel industry accidents. You'll end up taking you vacation in your backyard.
