I got an interesting shock on the EWR-DEN
flight.

Near the end of the flight, one of the flight
attendants hands me a captains jacket. I
look at it and said mine is a light blue
Eddie Bauer bomber jacket.

The flight attendant laughted and said I looked like the captain (yeah, in a black
shirt and jeans?)

The guy next to me said "You didn't know that
they can't wake up captain from his nap and you have to land the plane?" All of
Conisseur class and the staff laughed.

Now if I had some training and guidance, I
wouldn't have minded landing the plane.

ANd if I could get automatic lifetime 1k
membership... it's a deal! CATMAN
