btw, newK- I heard that after seeing you fly the DC-9, DL is working on converting the DC-9-30's into orbital spacecraft post retirement to compete with Virgin Galactic and NASA.
I heard is was actually newK that took down the Death Star...in a DC-9...by throwing galley coffee at it.

Also, LAX guys don't actually DRINK beer. We prefer a nice pinot noir or our martinis dirty....blue cheese-stuffed olives are a nice touch. Just so's ya know in the future and you want to reciprocate.
Are those available on tap?

Are these available extra hot or with ranch dressing?

You know how in the Alien(s)movies the creatures blood is like acid and destroys anything that it touches? That blood was modeled after DC-9 coffee.

I'm buying your book, and I'm going to watch you on the 7th and if I could be so rude to ask, can you flash the APCF gahng symbol? Or say "carl spackler"?

On rj's they have this very wonderful invention called an intercom and since the guy can hear you while they're making a PA you can keep saying over and over "don't say ****, don't say ****"

oh its great. so just imagine 80 in your ear saying "dont say carl, dont say carl..."

Bonus points for mentioning the cone of shame. Talk about a softball... I can't imagine Buzz being able to reference the commander in chief with that phrase.

btw- would you prefer me order your book through you or amazon or what? Not sure what's more beneficial.

With or without FA spit? We're talking some serious destructive potential here.

Wouldn't it be funny if the angry old hag FA's had a second "inner" mouth like the alien? I kind of imagine them doing that sometimes when I hear/see them treating the customers with the respect and kindness that a professional would always do.


YOURE GONNA HAVE TO CHECK THAT BAG, SIR!! (notice captain newK standing to the right)

I'll try and fit in Carl...as much as it pains me.

We have a gahng symbol? Is it the one we use at Spondivits at midnight? If I recall, I rub my crotch, look deeply into the eyes of Courtney Friel and say......'Sup? That one?

Actually, and thanks for asking, what works best on the book's initial launch is to go through Amazon. It creates an internet "buzz," pun not really intended. Besides, my prices are MUCH higher. I'm an airline pilot, dontchaknow?

We had some a-line the other day that was giving a diamond medallion first class passenger a bunch of crap because he had an extra bag. The bag was a camera bag which he obviously couldn't check. He was a really nice guy so my Captain "took care" of the situation. She was pretty irritated with the Captain for overriding her, but oh well. Sometimes the right decision isn't necessarily the most popular decision!
