We’ve been doing it wrong, Mick.
So much for Bernoulli’s principle.

I loved the irony of watching the flyers that would get stuck riding pallets in steerage with us on their phones as we were taking off.
Kind of like all the warning signs at the hospital not to use your phone, but every doc and nurse in the joint is blabbering or tapping away on one.
Didn’t Mythbusters look into this and found that this was only an issue with particular phones that operated in a specific wavelength and even then only affected one instrument’s readings?
Yeah Mason, but that reading was for the temperature of the coffee as well as when the mini-bottles of vodka fell below a certain number available. If I had to land one of those gravity defying lumbering monsters I’d sure want lots of hot coffee with a few spikes.
That was some funny sh*t right there. Bet we know who would hit that little yeller haired stewardess…oops, my bad…Blonde Headed Flight Attendant.
Most of my flying was done long before 9/11. Until June of ’13, my last flight was a business trip to NYC in ’96 before the cell phone, PC, PDA, Tablet ect was in every pocket. I remembered flying with my CCW under my jacket, a nice hawkbill in my pocket, and had a smoke or 3 on the flight.
Flying post 9/11 was a real eye opener. Not just the whole TSA thing but airplane mode? What’s that? daHell? Pat down, get half nekkid, barefoot, take your hat off, no peanuts? daHell? No pocket knife, nail trimmer, no snips (blunt no pointed scissors) and blue bladed work knife (1 & 1/2 inch length blade), and definitely NO CCW under my coat. daphuque? I just have ever who is picking me up at the airport bring a spare gat with them. Feel nekkid if I’m not toting.
Oh, and the yeller haired girl? I’d hit it too.
What, no peanuts?!
(I haven’t flown since ’96, if memory serves.)
AW1Ed,
Dad much better today, cursing at dishes and coffee cups not in their appropriate places.
Thank you.
Good to hear, and check your email.
Ed, our buddy Gregory Tambone has a new video out:
Bone Tactical Greggy? Sweet! Need to check with TAH WW HQ and see if it’s kosher to do a BFTP on our pal.
Thanks!
