Setting sail for the "River of January"

UPDATE @ 11:00am ET: No exploding fireballs today. Lino's flight to Rio arrived safe and sound @ 6:19am ET this morning. And with his self-imposed communications blackout now in effect, that's going to be the last we hear from Lino for a while. Time to break out some recordings of Seize The Day to keep us from getting bored for the next week.

Boy, Brazil is a long way from the United States… 4,746 miles from Atlanta to Rio de Janeiro, and it takes over 8½ hours to fly there. And we're giving you the opportunity to track Lino as he flies there… at least as far as the Caribbean. Once he gets over South America we'll have no way of knowing if his plane has exploded in an enormous fireball or not until he either gets there or we see it on the news. His flight departs at 8:45pm ET and is scheduled to arrive at 6:25am ET on Sunday, so set your alarm clocks!
