I'll get on a transatlantic plane without carry-on luggage when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

(Or when they pay me the full replacement price of my checked luggage when I board. On the unlikely chance I ever see it again, and on time too, I'll gladly refund the money... minus a modest handling charge. AND they must have at least three decent full-length novels in the passenger cabin for me, as that's how many I'll need.)

Ben Franklin is probably doing about 2,000 RPM in his grave about now. Sound bite of Dubya's I heard on the way home from lunch: "We're still not completely safe." Um, dude, we're never going to be completely safe.

It's the sort of thing that makes me want to smack around a bunch of sheeple just on general principle.

Oh, I like that: sheeple. Consider it swiped (likely yet again)

I swiped it from disaster-preparedness geeks.

I first heard it from the em-cee of the worldcon masquerade two years ago in Boston :)

Nooooo idea where it originated.

No useful content here except I ADORE THOSE WINGS. I probably hadn't taken any previous opportunities to tell you that.
