That’s right: you can own the plane that “Sully” Sullenberger dropped ever-so-gently into the Hudson on January 15, 2009, a little over a year ago. It looks like it’s still in pretty good condition – maybe it would make a nice playhouse for the kids? – with most of the gear intact.

The plane is out in Jersey somewhere, but you can probably just rent a Zipcar at Ikea in Elizabeth and drive it home, probably down the Pennsylvania turnpike. Also, how is this for understatement:

Description of Accident: Aircraft suffered severe bird strike event resulting in water emergency landing.
Description of Damage: Severe water damage throughout airframe. Impact damage to underside of aircraft.

“Severe water damage,” in my book, means what happened in Lost. It doesn’t mean a safe landing on one of the busiest waterways in America.

Waking up to a rooster’s crow in the morning is a bit too stereotypical for my tastes, but the tweeting of a small bird is the perfect alternative to morning show radio banter. This LED alarm clock from habitat features an electronic bird perched on top that not only moves, but also sings you out of your restful slumber. Get it from habitat.co.uk for about $30.
