Couple Missed Air France Flight

Now if this isn't creepy you tell me what is!!

AP

Johanna Ganthaler, from Italy, was on vacation in Brazil with her husband missed the doomed jetliner when they arrived late at the airport in Rio de Janerio.

A woman who dodged death when she and her husband narrowly missed Air France Flight 447 before it plunged into the Atlantic Ocean, killing all 228 aboard, was killed in a car accident just over a week later.

Photos: French Plane Downed in Ocean Storm View Slideshow An Air France airliner carrying 228 people from Brazil to Paris crashed into the Atlantic after a possible lightning strike. Johanna Ganthaler a retiree from the Bolzano-Bozen province, was on vacation in Brazil with her husband Kurt when the pair miraculously missed the doomed flight to Paris. But their luck ran out on an Austrian road earlier this week when their car swerved into the path of an oncoming truck outside the town of Kufstein, the Times (U.K.) reported. Kurt Ganthaler was badly hurt in the accident. Flight 447 disappeared from radar shortly after leaving Rio de Janeiro and is believed to have broken apart shortly after it left the airport in Brazil on May 31 with 228 people on board. Some three dozen bodies have been fished out of the ocean where the Airbus jet plunged into the water. A nuclear-powered French submarine has begun scouring the seafloor for any sign of the black box, which could hold the key to determining what felled the plane. The Ganthalers flew out of the country on a flight the day after the jet went missing.

Computers ugh..

Well it turns out that the reason our computer was slowing up and not letting us put anything on it was because the hard drive was going bad. So yes we ordered a new one..but we can't put it on till we have everything off..I"m so glad I bought an external hard drive earlier!! So Nick should be coming to install that this week after I was up till 1am several nights taking stuff off. The hardest thing was itunes, because we couldn't just put those all on my ext. hard drive because when I would put them back on the files wouldn't be recognized and would think it was pirated, and the only way to get around that is to burn cd's of all the music I bought on Itunes..so that took a LONG time...expecially with it being slow from this problem.
Then of course theres the documents and the pictures everything else thats on there..so last night I just sat there and put it all on my hard drive..well most of it.
I've been working 5 days a week 32 hrs...so thats why it took me a while and why I had to stay up so late. And of course I have to get up EARLY in the morning to get ready for work too..
To add more to my plate I'm skipping 11th grade and going right to my senior year, so I"m doing lots of school right now even though its summer. Not to mention I"m going to go to community college in the fall here.
And more..I signed up for the National Bible Bee and I've acomplished 1 of 75 pages of studying that need to be completely memorized before september. :)
Now you understand why I don't have time to look through pics, shrink them, put them in order, upload them and make a post. I shall try though while I"m at work sometimes to do it.
