THAT”S a GUY!! (Just start looking from the A-apple on up.)

I remember the old tobacco company ads that stressed the civility of smokers and that OF COURSE they would extinguish their cigarette if asked to do so.

[ransomnote]

Probably not pure tobacco in those “cigarettes”, if you know what I mean.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

She needs to switch to decaf.

[Army Air Corps]

Thanks, that made me laugh.

Should have seen what I was like when I quit smoking!

I remember a time when anyone anywhere in a cabin could light up anytime. It wasn’t very pleasant.

I did a bit of flying during those times and I agree. I also flew a lot when they put the smokers in the back of the plane (Yeah, like that'll help in a sealed tin can). Anyway, I had several flights returning home from Germany on the Lufthansa planes and the Germans in the back smoked those terrible European cigarettes. The whole plane smelled like burning dung.

Well obviously you have not been to Nevada.. lol everyone smokes here. So yes, people still smoke.. isn’t freedom nice.

"“Valerie” seem to be carrying a little extra “package” in her pants?"

Doesn't appear to have any boobs either.

THAT”S a GUY!! (Just start looking from the A-apple on up.)

Sheesh! Over 70 posts, and not one person read the caption under the picture of the guy. United Express Flight 3411, David Dao dragged off plane unconscious. They used pictures of various flights where people were kicked off, starting with that one of the guy David Dao.

TransDar pegged to the max.

Portland to Sacramento is a one hour flight. If you can't make it for one hour without a cigarette you've got big problems.

From the time one enters the airport, goes through security, goes through the ticket process, and waits for boarding it is much longer than an hour in a no-smoking zone. I always get to the airport at least two hours before flight time. Plus, the one hour time is from wheels up to wheels down. There is still taxi time, waiting for takeoff clearance, and whatever other delays come up.

Now I am not a smoker, so it does not bother me at all, but lets be realistic about the time.

I quit smoking when a carton of cigarettes hit ten dollars.
A buck a pack? No way. Anyone who smokes now is throwing money away by the fist full.

[Bigg Red]

That’s a female?

[Seaplaner]

I suspect other substances were involved...

I share your suspicion, my FRiend.

Hopefully, the Sheriff's Deps will do a comprehensive drug screen.

Someone else laughed at the notion of a no-smoking in an airliner since you are basically sitting in a tube. Maybe it was Ron White. Speaking of whom...

The comedian regularly smoked marijuana during their flights, said former co-pilot Chris LaPlante - so much, in fact, “we wore oxygen masks” so they would not become impaired.
