Another incident on NW flight 253. I might need to get a permission slip to use the restroom CDG-IAD at this rate.

Starting my New Year's resolution early doing a big cleanup in my basement. 6 bags of stuff and 2 non-functioning small appliances(why:confused:) later, I have a nice pile for the garbage pickup.

Would the 6 bags of stuff be useful to a favored charity as an end-of-year tax deduction?

Time to go alittle less PC and begin using racial profiles for screening.

Or maybe this poor man couldn't get the door unlocked.

I have 3 lamps that I refuse to let my husband throw away. 5 years later I know I'm not going to rewire them and buy new shades. I think it's time I tossed them since the bases have discolored beyond repair.

My vacation ended yesterday. :(

I'm going thru withdrawal.

No, this is 6 bags o' stuff that should have been thrown out 20 years ago. I have a few things(playpen, stroller, etc. gently used by visiting nieces/nephews/kids) that will go to the Red Cross or Salvation Army.

With no IFE on the plane, what the hell else is there to do on a long international flight? If, God forbid, I'm stuck on an ocean crossing with no entertainment, it's all about a glass of bubbly in my left hand and my big black "disco stick" in my right...

Sadly, no. Battery on my camera died early on day one. :(

Hi Box,

Hope you are having good holidays and that your travels are minimally disturbed by recent :rolleyes: incidents.

Officials say the disruptive passenger had 'stomach problems' that prevented him from leaving the restroom when asked
Talk about embarrassing...

You'll be duct tape to your seat nude. The TSA recommendation is that you shave any body hair off so it will hurt less when they rip the tape off at the end of the flight.

Oh that will go over well with the NAACP and the President.

As for passengers spending too much time in the lav, the people who fly EWR-BRS need to eat more fiber.

Maybe ALCO was onto something with the manscaping.:eek:

This plan would be challenged by the inability to use the lavatory ...
