Sometimes in life when you read something it makes you realise that you are not quite as mental as you think you actually are -that there are actually people out there a tad more mental than yourself.
Farts spark emergency landing
Thursday Dec 7 09:34 AEDT
An American Airlines flight made an emergency landing this week after a passenger with severe gas problems struck matches to mask the odor of flatulence, an official said.
The flight from Washington to Texas landed at Nashville airport on Tuesday, in the southeastern state of Tennessee, after passengers alerted the crew about the smell of burning sulfur, Lynne Lowrance, spokeswoman for the Nashville International Airport Authority said.
She said all 99 passengers and their luggage were taken off the plane and searched, and an unlucky canine team was brought in to sniff the aircraft for explosives.
After intense questioning by the FBI, a woman passenger admitted to lighting matches on board the aircraft to conceal her gas, Lowrance said.
"For a long time she did not admit to striking matches and I think that was just out of embarrassment," she said. "She did finally admit to it saying she had a medical problem about excessive gas."
The unidentified woman was not charged but "American did ban her from flying on their airline for a very long time," Lowrance said.
Must say -it did crack me up to read of the unlucky canine team.
One day, you just never know, there might be something sensible to read here in this blog. But don't count on it.
I've just remembered a song from school: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 or more (insert name here) dropped a bomb in the discount store. 20,000 people had to hold their breath, (insert name here) dropped anoher one which caused their death.
Kids and their farting fetishes -but that song does have proper words and what was the song?....maybe something to do with snoopy and the red baron or something like that?
Kids are terrible - and there was another silly song -not about excess gas though -to the tune of Tragedy by the Bee Gees: Tragedy, when your balls go bang and...can't remember the rest, more's the pity. Such an edifying song, too.
Aren't you so glad you read this post  .
