I've seen similar labels/signs near tobacco elsewhere, IIRC Norway or Denmark and also someplace in Asia. I think there's also a place that even has pictures of advanced cancer.

I bought a festive T-shirt to wear to our group's Christmas potluck lunch today. And then I left it home.

Just found out that my favorite SC agent at CVG is retiring at year's end. 30 years at CVG. Wow. Definately will be missed.

I always thought the line “I must’ve eaten some bad Borscht” was a quaint way to tell someone you weren’t feeling well... until I literally ate some bad Borscht in Kiev Sunday night.

Yeah... that’s next-level “explosive” relief. My body is still recovering, but I feel really bad for the FAs on DL2896 last night, and my fellow D1 pax.

I’m sorry. So very, very sorry.

Just wanted to wish you all happy holidays from the blue side! Finally figured out my login again so I may be causing more trouble again like I used to.

Are you sure the Russians didn't poison you?

And no idiots bumping your shoulder just as you have fallen to sleep. And on a TATL in the fall especially on a Northern Route out of say MSP (!!! ) a good view of the Northern Lights.

You aren't speaking from experience or anything.

Me: “I just got passed the threshold for Diamond Medallion!”

9 year old daughter: “Does that mean we get chocolate?”
