A National Tragedy Averted

Define irony:

BOSTON - A plane carrying U.S. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy from western Massachusetts to his home on the coast was struck by lightning Saturday and had to be diverted to New Haven, Conn., his spokeswoman said.

The eight-seat Cessna Citation 550 plane lost all electrical power, including communications, and the pilot had to fly the plane manually, according to spokeswoman Melissa Wagoner. No one was hurt. - (Courtesy, Yahoo! News)

Normally, I would think that this "Act of God" would be payback for Kennedy's past indiscretions. Of course, with a record as squeaky clean as Teddy's . . .

Oh, never mind.
