Let the games begin!
 

As a group, let's see how creative we are.

I'm going to start a story and the next person is to add <b>only<b> one sentence! Whether you like what the previos poster wrote or not, you can only continue the storyline. I've participated in these at other BBS's and found the results can be quite amusing.

Here we go:

My bags were packed and the taxi arrived at my home on time.

Addicted to airline miles? Check out: The Airline Mileage Workshop

I stated to become nerveous, did I really have all the tickets, credit cards, foreign monneys, upgrade-vouchers, passports, ff-cards, frequent-guest-cards, Hertz-#1 card, event-/theatre-tickets, print-outs of all my reservations, my medicine?

This is stupid OMNI!

...I said when I saw I still had my key from the Omni hotel, haven't never checked out...

Hoping to rid myself of guilt by association I threw the key out the window of the cab

A homeless person saw the key-card being tossed out of the taxi window, and picked it up.

I was disturbed by his lack of dental floss, so I made a bee line to the nearest pharmacy.

The homeless person read the small print on the key card: Welcome to the Hotel OMNI, what a lovely place, what a lovely place... you can never leave, so take this key to any airport, and you will receive a free ticket back with our compliments. We have your number and we are wanting to welcome you back.

When I arrived at the hotel, I saw Catman hanging around waiting for newself....

What Catman did not know is newself had missed his connecting flight...

Because, he was drunk at the Yardhouse...

while watching the Lakers/TrailBlazers game with essxjay...

All the while just trying to pass the time until kickoff in Oakland when the Raiders go heads up against the Panthers in an action packed contest that could only be superseded in insanity by a conscious decision to mix red wine with coke.

So then I signed up to be a FlyerTalk moderator! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/mad.gif

Come on, people, this is ridiculous!

... and later found out Flyertalk had rejected my application.

Distraught from the whole experience, I swallowed a whole bottle of pills...

only, they were Smarties instead, and i ran around the terminal, like a person possesed, by well......sugar

Then I suddenly stopped in my tracks when I realized who the homeless person had been ... it was James Goodwin; UA had finally come to its senses and put him back where they found him.

They put him on NW.

But the Northwest plane ended up stuck on the tarmac, with a blizzard bearing down on the airport. As it was a short flight, they only had pretzels aboard, which Mr. Goodwin had brought along with him (in fact, several cases) so all the passengers could enjoy them.

This northwest passanger with the nickname of DOC took pity on Jim Goodwin and offered him a place to sleep for the night.

This expansive place to rest his head looked suspiciously like a cargo hold.

The cargo hold seating arrangement had been schemed up by the airline execs in an effort to one up their competition who kept removing seats to make more room; there was now an ever expansive amount of room, but no cushy seats that double as flotation devices in the unlikely event of a survivable water landing.


(I think that's just one sentence; sorry I don't know any of the folks to take personal shots or jokes, but I like this)

Meanwhile, back at the Hotel OMNI, Catman was showing pictures of Yaz & Eddie to the ladies at the front desk...

Yet while they gazed at these fine photos they appeared to be just a bit distracted, perhaps by CATMAN himself, and his manifestly gracious and giving manner...

Then airport security found Jim Goodwin riding on a baggage belt (half frozen) looking for the good doctor who had so graciously given him a new seat assignent

Meanwhile, back at the OMNI, Catman's best buddy wanderlust showed up and the dudes planned a fun evening with their newly found lady friends! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Unfortunately after closer inspection, the ladies ended up being inflatable sheep named Dolly.

Even closer inspection revealed several hundred tiny little pin-pricks.

"Oh no ewe don't," cried Catcop, "no jokes about dimpled chads - or that other kind, either!"

Catman then exclaimed "Oh No! I guess Yaz and Eddie made those holes with their sharp claws while I was babysitting the sheep!"

Maybe we should be back to a travel theme?

With a "sheep like grin" , Catman orders lamb chops at the nearest airport eatery....The RCC was closed..too baaaad!

------------------
MRKEY

The eatery had 'overbooked' on lambchop orders and was all out, they offered catman a voucher good for one way travel on NWA as compensation, which catman gladly accepted, however upon reading the small print...

[This message has been edited by travelcoupons (edited 12-21-2000).]

The travel on the voucher was free but it had a $75 service charge for ticketing and travel was not permitted to or from any NYC airport.

That was bad enough, but little did he realise what the consequences of just fronting up, penniless, to the NWA counter would be!

travelling second day air freight is no fun.

and he is gonna freeze in cargo..should have brought those truffels to warm him up..hot towels were cold by the time the FA came rolling by..

He looked out the terminal window, saw the plane with the pretty red tail, and instinctively thought, "should have taken the train instead."

Yet he was promptly reassured by the very nice large ad on the wall above the checkin counter that read "We are the nations number one on time airline*"

*August DOT data, 79.2 percent

Sensing that something unusual was about to happen, he took note of the other people milling about: a portly Australian, a man named Guy (who was carrying a suitcase full of cash), and a group of crazy Canadians wearing sombreros.
