Passengers please, may I have your attention...
Before boarding the plane, please:

1) Place all carry-on luggage in the bin to be x-rayed.
2) Keep both hands extended foward to test for chemicals residues
3) Remove your shoes and place then in the bin with your luggage
4) Stick your tongue out for DNA testing.
5) Have Passport, affidavit verifying your passport, and your mother to verify your ID (your mother will also need an ID).
6) Your most recent psychiatric evaluation with a copy of your psychiatrist psychiatric evaluation...

Thank you for flying with us... :rant: :banghead: :sarcasm:

5. I agree with being amazed
Their is nothing funny what so ever about what happened. It saddens me to no end that this man died, but my friends work on those airplanes and my husband flies them. I hate the hassle of screening and security, I think they should screen the cargo and I think there should be more personel, they have cut back so much, but cut rate fares and full airplanes that don't make a profit affects the whole industry in many ways.

14. If I read your comment right

you need to get an irony adjustment to distinguish hah-hah humor from irony.

If not, well then ...

3. How about this one?:
"In the event you're flying with somebody who's mentally unstable and off their meds, now would be a good time to alert somebody to that fact so nobody gets shot."

29. I've yet to see any quote from another passenger who stated that....
...he said anything about a bomb.

The only people to state that he was talking about a bomb were the air marshals.

Hmmmmmm.

Can you say, CYA?

And why is this early storyline starting to sound a lot like the story about the guy that was shot to death after he boarded a subway in the UK?

24. And before boarding, please step forward to the shower room...
...men and boys on the left, women and girls on the right....remove all clothing and personal effects and leave them in the baskets on your way into the showers.
