I had a dude on CO 40 yesterday IAH-EWR on a 762 who was sitting in 17F in the minicabin, and as soon as we landed, he bended down and ripped arse right next to me. He was an old dude, so I didn't make it a big deal, but didn't have the heart to do anything but just laugh whilst biting my tounge!

As I sit here posting this, the ad generator decides to throw an acid reflux spot at me. Classic.

Finally a funny thread!!! I won't lie and say the cabin pressure doesn't effect me a bit more then others. I will use it to my power especially if I am flying with a crabby f/a. Whoops!! Sorry! Or if you want to clear out the galley so I can have some me and my crew time... I tell them to go and I'll clear it out. In all reality the planes stink so much and we are always right by the lavs. There is not a single plane that we fly that a jumpseat is not attached to a lav wall. I for sure bring the best smelling freshener and febreze. You really sometimes can't help what your body was designed to do.

As usual - here am I - drawn like a moth to the flame. Reading this thread is a little like watching Jerry Springer or his ilk. You know that you shouldn't watch it, you know that no good will come of it, and you know that this is not something that you admit to doing to even your most intimate friends. However, when I took my husband to see "Jerry Springer - The Opera" in London when it opened at the National Theatre it was abundently clear to me that the anitcs and exhibitions that people made of themselves on the show were clearly well beyond anything vaguely resembling Passing Interest from the audience at this usually rather high brow and occasionally hoity-toity London theatre.
Now in case you think that this is off topic please may I offer you this

The topic was aired (excuse pun) about 2 months ago and I thought that it was particularly apt and as IAH is Continental territory (We are probaly the only thing at a gate without a blue and yellow tail!) - who knows maybe - just maybe you have encountered this lady before.
FWIW - the way I dealt with such noxious vapours in times past was to light a match. No there was no risk of explosion - there is not enough methane for that - but the smoke from the match cleared out the smell. Now that trick had gone the way of all tircks and been turned for every.

Pucci Galore, thanks for the Alma Jean link. I believe that trumps anything posted to this thread to date.
Now I have to run out to Staples for another keyboard...
