Warnings

The following entry was written a few days ago on my flight from Rio de Janeiro back to the US. I was going out of my mind from boredom and jetlag, so apologies in advance if reading it makes you dumber.

SIX REASONS NOT TO FLY AMERICAN AIRLINES
The first five all have to do with delays. All five times this trip I or anyone in my family have flown American Airlines, the plane has been delayed. At least twice the official reason was engine failure, which (from the little I know about aeronautics) is kind of serious.

The sixth comes from a sign I found in the bathroom over the toilet.

DISCARDING ANYTHING OTHER THAN
TOILET TISSUE IN THE TOILET
CAN CAUSE EXTERNAL LEAKS
AND CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD
So I crapped in the sink.

MY CATCHY NEW SLOGAN FOR AMERICAN AIRLINES

American Airlines: There's Crap In Our Sinks. And Our Engines Break In Two Out Of Five Flights. Also, Terrorists Can Make Our Planes "Leak" By Putting Non-Toilet-Paper Objects In The Toilet -- For Example, Poop

Hello, it's me again -- the hunky, ironic me of the present, not the stinky, cryptic me from the plane trip. I'd just like to add that I recently found a gorgeous iPhone application that doesn't seem to have gotten much attention. It's called MuniTime and it's an iPhone interface for NextMuni's bus-tracking systems. For you iPhone owners who live in SF (I'm looking at you, Yitz, and... basically Yitz and MAYBE Jesse, and Joanna I guess), check it out. NextBus has just added MUNI's diesel lines, too. I didn't really crap in the sink. Bye everyone, I'll post again soon!
