Hey!!!! Well, here is what makes flying better for me:
1. You're more likely to kill yourself then die in an airplane. If you aren't going to kill yourself, you can fly with no worries!
2. You're more likely to kill yourself on your BIKE then die in an airplane.
I remember these things...and I am a happy flier.

Are the pilots buzzed up often? Are the stewardesses ho's?
I work for a cargo hauler. We dont even fly people. (With Exceptions).
But I work on the same ramp with people from United/Delta/Southwest and Midwest Express. We're all friendly with each other, 'cause the airport only has so much equipment, and we swap all the time. We all go to the same bars after work and smoke in the same parking lot on breaks.

zippoz "in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption" "People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."
