Elton John Airways anyone?
Associated Press ^ | February 2005 | AP news

Singer and militant homosexual activist Elton John's mug shot will appear on the side of 20 AirTran jets. The move supposedly is designed to promote the launch of satellite radio at each passenger seat.

AirTran's actions are a slap in the face to all those who cherish traditional family value... values I might add that Elton John often mocks. What's next, AirTran, a Michael Jackson aircraft?

Count me a non-flyer on your airline as long as you are associated with one who mocks all that my family and I hold dear.

Hey, Elton...do me a favor. Don't say anything unless Bernie Taupin writes it, ok?

Thankfully, Elton's John isn't going anywhere that I care to be.

Let's see ... here is a partial list of some musicians from Atlanta (and Georgia) that AirTran could have chosen:

Ray Charles
Johnny Mercer
Ray Stevens
Otis Redding
Brenda Lee
The Allman Brothers
Little Richard
Lena Horne
Ronnie Milsap
Mac Davis
Peabo Bryson
Travis Tritt
Issac Hayes
Trisha Yearwood
B-52's
Chuck Leavell
Alan Jackson

So they pick a flaming brit who happens to have a condo in Atlanta. Air Trannie, indeed.

Do the planes approach the terminal from the rear?

"Oh, Let Your Son, go down on me.

Those cub scout shorts above the knee."

Elton Jane's, aka England's OTHER Queen, will go down like, well, Elton himself.

The question is, how much will he have Bernie Taupin do.
