Did you see the pics someone posted last week here of Allah and his minions/angels?

I thought the snake like lower legs/feet of the angels was very creepy as was allah.

Reminded me of Lucifer and his crew. (trying to copy Jesus as usual)

Oh. (whoops I missed it)

"I noticed F-15s next to the plane. I said, 'Oh my God.' And then we saw the emergency vehicles," Nash said.

How did they get the emergency vehicles up there?

[Ditto]

Where did he get the idea that she was claustrophobic? None of that description sounds like claustrophobia to me.

Ditto that. Why would a claustrophobic spend half the flight holed up in those tiny airplane lavatories?

LOL Sprinters with wings.

I just watched Flight 93 and boy I would not recommend that movie prior to a flight esp. if one has tendencies towards mental health issues.

The Airline industry hires their psycho. analyzers from the same place they get their TNA's.

I predict this thread will go over 100 posts.

disgusting scenario.

Trebuchet?

After spending 6 years in Pakistan. Nope, nothing to see here whatsoever. "Cathy Mayo is an American journalist based in Pakistan"

Somebody went native?

I found the true extreme limits of my phobia on a 30 footer! Had to help my Dad do something on the little 4-banger. L squoze into that tiny space and could barely move. Got out really quickly! I'd rather go up on the bosun's chair on a windy day, than go back in that hole!

I think that's where someone should have tackled her . . . and made sure she landed in the puddle.

You know that big wall that separates coach from first class? That's the bulkhead. It's great to sit in a bulkhead row - there's almost always more leg room.

Back in 1997, while having a nasty reaction to a sulfa drug, I spent 80% of a Houston-to-Cancun flight in the lavatory - and 80% of my vacation in the hotel tub.

I looked up a recipe for Cassoulet and have gotten pretty good at it. It is delicious. They did not confiscate my wine; I believe you are allowed 5-6 bottles.
My wife is Parisian and we usually bring back a suitcase full of delicacies which are hard or impossible (not so much with Internet sales now) to find here.

I remember coming back across the Mojave desert into Calif a few years back and had an orange in my ice chest, the entry cop would not let me bring fruit into Calif so he confiscated it. It was 110 degrees and the orange was about 35, I notice he was peeling it as I pulled away but I wouldn't blame him.

Hmmm, a 59 YO grandmother with a Pakistani boyfriend. This all reads like she was recruited by her pal, and then drugged before the flight to remove any second thoughts/inhibitions about carrying out her plot. Only she became so uninhibited that she urinated on the cabin floor.

Soooo.... how long before Mother Sheehan gets herself a Muslim boytoy? Now wouldn't that be easy money... he could just skip the brainwashing step.

... just a kooky leftist journalist who freaked out...

Perhaps she finally confronted THE TRUTH.

Any leftist facing reality is at risk of mental damage and/or emotional upheaval.

[Larry Lucido]

Had to look it up, but, LOL!

[TaxRelief]

Maybe she's not nuts. Maybe she wanted to get arrested so she could safely pass on some info about something she happened upon.... Maybe she is positioning herself for protective custody.

OBTW, she is a 59-year old white native-born American grandma. Aren't the simpletons that scream "racially profiling is all we need to do" always saying we are wasting time searching white grandmothers?
