Making it's way around the Internet today is a piece of news coming from the land of the free and weird, America, where a man was charged with making threats against the passengers of an Atlanta-bound Delta flight, while airborne. The man, Bryan Sisco, 40, was alleged to have made these threats in a drunken attempt to flirt with 25 years old Danielle Valimont.

It was reported that Mr. Sisco's frenetic bragging was the result of being heavily under the influence of alcohol. This was later disputed by Ms. Valimont who claimed that there was no hint of alcohol in his breath and behaviour, just very very bad flirting.

Reading this reminded me of my flight back from Phuket, Thailand a couple of weeks back where there were two young Caucasian ladies sitting one row in front of me. One was very quiet and looked very "cool", while the other seemed a little chatty and louder than normal, and in her hand, a can of beer. I overheard the beer drinking lady apologizing to a young couple beside her, whom she have been trying to make small talk with, saying "Excuse me if I'm asking too many questions, I have been drinking the whole day". *hic...
When we landed, after the flight attendant had given her usual "thank you and hope you have enjoyed the flight" speech, Ms. "I've-been-drinking" quipped loudly, "well, we would have enjoyed it more if you had served alcohol during the flight!".
Tsk tsk. Drinking and flying - not advisable for either white supremacist looking bald headed gentlemen, nor attractive looking blond white young ladies.
