A JetBlue captain went berserk on a flight from Kennedy Airport to Las Vegas today in an incident that forced the plane to make an emergency landing, passengers and authorities said.

“Say your prayers!” the crazed pilot screamed as he ran up and down the aisle, a passenger told The Post.

Oh, yes. It seemed like they also ran it every weekend on the USA Network back in the mid ‘80s along with “The King of Comedy”, for which my mother couldn’t fathom why I wanted to watch over and over again. I wanted to be Rupert Pupkin. ;-)

“National depression?”

That issue more than any other will cost Obama the election; people have to deal with inflation which is basically a pay cut, and on top of that the previous remedies (bargaining with your employer or switching jobs) are simply not on the table anymore. Those fortunate enough to survive layoffs often have increased workloads to compensate for it, and employers know their people are often stuck.

The one place these people can vent without fear of losing their jobs is the ballot box, and I think many many people will. Obama will “unexpectedly” lose all 50 states in his re-election bid.

“It was also reported that the pilot might have been a former war veteran and as such shouldn’t probably not have been permitted to fly”

Good grief that was one of the worst failed attempts at constructing a coherent sentence that I have seen here on FR in ten years of freeping.

I think what you were trying to say is that if the pilot was a war vet he shouldn’t be flying.

Well guess what? I WANT the guy who is prior military, especially with combat or wartime air ops experience flying me around.

Maybe it’s the recirculated air. I never use that option when I’m driving my car; it’s always on fresh.

Did the co-pilot spike the Captain's coffee ?

Is al-Qaeda putting psycho-tropic drugs on airlines ?

What do you have against combat veteran pilots flying commercially?

If you had done your research you would know
that the Captain was never in the Service.

MY RESEARCH???????

You are the one who said “It was also reported that the pilot might have been a former war veteran and as such shouldn’t probably not have been permitted to fly”.

So based on YOUR research, (”It has been reported”) what do you have against combat veterans flying commercially?

Something’s going on. Someone’s doing this to flight personnel.

The chemtrail tank sprung a leak and it got into the ventilation system.

I seriously doubt it.

If it was terrorism Holder's FBI could not find it.

Or refuse to find it.

It must have been just "workplace violence" /sarc ;-)

Hey shorty.

I NEVER SAID WHAT YOU CLAIM I SAID.

SO IT LOOKS LIKE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
THE CONCEPT OF RESEARCH.

It looks like you have a reading comprehension issue.
