She later comped me a double scotch on the rocks, but I just have to say that not a single passenger lifted a finger to help, were seemingly paralyzed with fear and made not a squeak, but if I even HALLUCINATE an incident on an airplane I'm about to fly on, I'll be personally all over it like stink on you-know-what.<br /><br />I'm not a doctor or an air marshal, but I can play one on TV.<br /><br />There is no shortage of lunatics in this world, and I've decided to be that guy in the white coat.<br /><br />But CNN didn't check in on THAT one.ChefNickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14506706291656673082noreply@blogger.com
