keno, you're mistaking mirth, over the absurdity of a situation with which all males can identify, with glee. Most humor requires an element of tragedy; there is nothing funny about the tragedy itself, but coupled with the ridiculous details, humor emerges from it. I shouldn't have to explain this...

Haha!

sue_lee, gauging by the standards you appear to apply to the newsworthiness of events and how they should be portrayed, if you operated a newspaper or any media outlet you'd have no readers or users, and nobody would subscribe or buy advertising space or time from you. You're a bore, and I doubt that any media source gives a crap what you object to.

I wouldn't believe anything that "Jamie" and "Adam" claim to have proven about urine droplets; I'm pretty sure that they have experience with other men's urine streams and that they're quite familiar with each other's penises, however.

Not nice, Jacque; funny, however, and I cling to that hope as well.

thedavidwilson, well said.

AC7880, I would worry that a good samaritan passenger who intervenes to defend crew members in an in-flight confrontation between another passenger and a crew member could be subject to penalties if we make sweeping "zero tolerance" rules. Sometimes it takes time to sort out who's the villain, and instant jail time doesn't allow for much discretion. Not to go ACLU on you, but let's think this out.

We have a lot of independent voters registered here and it's looking good for Scott Brown right now. If a Republican could ever win a senate seat in Massachusetts (and I have voted for about a half dozen of them up to now, beginning with Ray Shamie) it would be now. Oddly enough, with our state's Democrat domination (or maybe because of it; they don't feel the need to cheat), voter fraud seems to be rare here, but pray for us.

Vink, TxnByBrth's speculation appeals to my xenophobic monkey brain more than yours. And I'll bet he's right. If I owned an airline, I wouldn't allow anyone who wears a table cloth on his head and eats off the floor on my jets. It's backwards.

mrnormalpants, what do you expect from the region that introduced Idi Amin to the world?
