Airbus A380 does Los Angeles


"Ol' boy no dey cough, dey spread yah infection for here."

That's me, speaking the mind of that lady I just passed in the lobby of my office. That same infernal voice that kept me out of the office all week, last week. Either way I'm ignoring it and going to work, I'm done recreating my very own meth lab.

"Wetin those pikin give you sef, you sure say no be t.b."

No, the kids aren't mine, my niece and nephews. This thing wan kobalize me sef. Actually it's not that bad, just lingering, it should leave once I'm done with the stacks of suppressant and decongestant that currently dominate my residence.

Now that you've met me and me, sort of, let's get down to the Airbus A380.


The European contraption
descended on LAX this week, albeit an empty one. Didn't get any shots of the touchdown, was still rolling around in bed when it arrived. The video and shots of the take-off are the result of two days of stalking from my office window. Its a biggie no doubt, but that high forehead gives it a downright dopey look. Don't know about flying on it either, not like I'll have a choice, but something about 500 people in a single plane just says hijacker's wet dream.

"Talk about a magnet for all those Cattle herders on the MMIA runway in Lagos."

Anyway enjoy the pictures and video.
