In 1997, and I remember this, a lady was seriously injured in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Paradewhen the Cat in the Hat balloon hit a big street light and it went crashing to the ground - on her.
Her name was Kathleen Caronna (which, incidentally, sounds like the name of our County Treasurer.)
Anyway, this week a plane carrying Yankee's pitcher Cory Lidle crashed into an apartment in New York City. You know whose apartment that belonged to?
Kathleen Caronna.
Yep. Same one.

I think if I was friends with her, I would have to stand really far away from her.
Were drugs , alcohol or rock trucks involved ?
Yikes!
It DEFINITLY sucks to be her!
BUMMER!
I remember when the balloon fell on her - one of the "news shows" did a spot on her. I agree - time to move to the country. But wait... what about the snakes and the bears?? It is a crap shoot no matter how you cut it.
Lightening??
Now, THAT'S scary! (Twilight Zone theme.)
