Just a couple of things before I slam the door, turn the phone off and absorb myself in finishing up this week’s mega-earnings issue of PlaneBusiness Banter.
One, our new contributor Godzilla is having some difficulty with our new upgraded version of Movable Type. Rather, MT is having problems of its own. Godzilla is, as far as we can tell, blameless.
We will start working on resolving these issues after this week’s issue is done.
So yes, he tried to respond to the comment left on his Family Airlines piece from yesterday, but alas, MT refused to take it. (Maybe MT just knows something we don’t?)
Speaking of Family Airlines, a reader wrote me a note today, in which he suggested we check out the video clips at the end of “Captain Dan of Family Airlines” video.
“Holly, check out the video clips at the end of “Captain Dan of Family Airlines” video. I hope these aren’t samples of the “In-Flight Entertainment”.
Clip # 4: “TACA TERROR ON TAPE” Flight 510
Clip # 9: BA Plane Crash-Lands at Heathrow
Clip # 8: Baby Born Onboard Flight KU411
Clip # 11: Airline Incident Southwest Kicks Family Right Off Flight
Clip # 12: Southwest Airlines INCIDENT Again! Kicks Family OffMaybe they should rename it “Terror Airlines”. Or “Scare The Shit Out Of My FAMILY AIRLINES!”
Or maybe his last suggestion, “Family Scare.”
Well, you know, until I got this note, I thought the most scary thing about this website was the fact that it had ads on it for such things as setting up your own Nevada corporation for cheap, and some political hack running for Congress. Oh, wait. That’s Barry Michaels. That’s the airline’s CEO.
Frankly, I’d never watched Family Dan’s clip all the way through, it was so bad.
But our reader is right. There is a really strange assortment of other YouTube links at the end of it. Not necessarily clips that should be on there.
Who are these people? I mean, is this whole thing really a creation of the Saturday Night Live writers who have nothing better to do now that they are on strike?
