Flight Information :-)

A friend of a guy in the Nutrition School at Tufts was one of the lucky
passengers on board a Northwest Airlines flight to Boston during our
recent hurricane "Bob".
The captain did his best to skirt the edge of the storm, but it was a
pretty rough ride just the same - rough enough that the flight attendants
were ordered to strap themselves into their seats for about half an
hour, and many of the passengers were putting the little plastic-lined
bags in their seat pockets to good use.
When the turbulence finally abated, the flight attendants unbuckled
themselves, and the captain's voice came on over the intercom:
"Well, folks, that was quite some ride, wasn't it? But we came through
it fine, just the way we always do, and I'm happy to report that it looks
like the remainder of our trip should be much calmer. On behalf of
myself and today's flight crew, I'd like to thank you very much for your
calmness and cooperation, and extend our best wishes for a pleasant
stay in Boston."
After a short pause and several clicks, we heard: "Jesus Christ...
Whatta bitchin' ride! Boy - I sure could use a cup of good strong
coffee and a blow job, right about now!"
As a stricken stewardess dashed up the aisle to the cabin to inform the
captain that his intercom was still on, one of the passengers called after
her:
"Don't forget the coffee!"
