Pretty interesting. I hope they find it!

The FINANCIAL -- Seventy five years ago, Amelia Earhart’s disappearance became one of the greatest mysteries in aviation history.
This summer, FedEx is supporting the search for answers with the transportation of underwater investigative equipment set for use by TIGHAR in its upcoming Earhart Project expedition.

FedEx, itself an aviation history-maker as the pioneer of overnight delivery, is donating in-kind services to support the logistical needs of moving high-tech search equipment from the continental United States to Honolulu, where the Earhart Project will depart on July 2, 2012 – the 75th anniversary of Earhart’s disappearance.

Hey. Wouldn't it be funny if clandestine ice started singing that Joni Mitchell song "Amelia" right now?
 
Hey. Wouldn't it be funny if when they find Amelia's body they also find a soccer ball next to it?
 
I was driving across the burning desert
When I spotted six jet planes
Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
It was the hexagram of the heavens
It was the strings of my guitar
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

The drone of flying engines
Is a song so wild and blue
It scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you
Then your life becomes a travelogue
Of picture-post-card-charms
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

People will tell you where they've gone
They'll tell you where to go
But till you get there yourself you never really know
Where some have found their paradise
Other's just come to harm
Oh Amelia, it was just a false alarm

I wish that he was here tonight
It's so hard to obey
His sad request of me to kindly stay away
So this is how I hide the hurt
As the road leads cursed and charmed
I tell Amelia, it was just a false alarm

A ghost of aviation
She was swallowed by the sky
Or by the sea, like me she had a dream to fly
Like Icarus ascending
On beautiful foolish arms
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

Maybe I've never really loved
I guess that is the truth
I've spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitude
And looking down on everything
I crashed into his arms
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

I pulled into the Cactus Tree Motel
To shower off the dust
And I slept on the strange pillows of my wanderlust
I dreamed of 747s
Over geometric farms
Dreams, Amelia, dreams and false alarms
 
The real mystery here is why was Amelia so damn ugly!!!

Man in drag?

I hope the Tom Hanks character he portrayed is O.K., I'd start talking to my balls too, if I were on an island that long. I'm glad FedEx gave him another job and didn't fire him for being gone for so long, or being responsible for the crash. Thank goodness he worked for Express, if he crashed off a highway working for Ground or Freight, they might not have found him yet, or even cared. They would probably bill his family for the equipment loss and the funeral, and whatever freight he used for survival. Oh, that's right- they would fire him immediatly for stealing, and breaking a seal, nevermind...

I definetly wouldn't have named my only friend on the island Wilson either- more like Nicole or Whitney....I know- she's DEAD.
