Tragedy struck in our nation's capital this week when a military helicopter collided with an American Airlines commercial airliner that was making its final approach to land at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. We pray for all the souls lost in this incident and for the first responders who began the recovery effort yesterday.

To lighten things up a bit, I bring in James Lileks to help me work through the Top 10 Dumbest Things Said This Week, a schtick we used to do together in various forms over the years during my Aftershow on the Hughniverse until I shuttered that to setup shop here at Duane's World. Now, he's back and wittier than ever.
