Oh well, no trip to Australia for me

Kingsley Veal, 35, a geologist from England, said his Continental flight from London’s Heathrow airport to San Francisco was “long and boring” because he couldn’t bring any books or music on board, but he thought the no-carry-on policy should always be in effect.

I totally think stewardesses, who hate rearranging all the overhead compartments, are really behind this.

    If you show them how much Clay Aiken is on Poddy, the TSA would probably let you take it aboard. A suicide bomber isn’t going to want his last moments to be spent listening to that.

    No, but maybe Dawn sitting there in her seat bopping around to Clay Aiken and sizing you up and down for blog fodder would be enough to make you want to derive a method, mid-flight, to end it for all.

    My thought was that since the overhead compartments are going to be empty, they should just fill them up with books and games that are pre-screened. Also, they’ll have to stop charging for the movies.

    Isn’t it just England that says no books though? I think US flights still allow them. You could fly through a different country to get to Australia.

    I’m flying to Nicaragua in a few days. I really hope they let me take my books and Spanish cds.

    My thought about the overhead compartments is that now there is someplace to stick the babies.
