Here we go again.....


BARDSTOWN, Kentucky (AP) -- Two skydivers collided about 200 feet above the ground and their parachutes deflated, causing the divers to plummet, authorities said. One later died.

That's sad news. And that there have been two incidents like this so close together...

I've spent a lot of time in Bardstown. It's a beautiful place!

Isn't Bardstown where whiskey is made or Jack Daniels?

Anyways, that must be a terrifying experience.

I think whiskey, or bourbon. Something along those lines. The Heaven Hill Distillery (burned several years ago) and a couple of others are in the area. I have a good friend that is acting in "Stephen Foster, The Musical" there this summer.
