cigarette.

Then you know they are handicapped. Only someone severly impaired
would smoke cigs. Weed's another story all together...

No, but I do support mandatory sterilization of runners, for the good of
the herd.

Some airlines charge two seats to very large people.

Too bad that didnt happen when I had a middle seat between too obese
people on a recent Jet Blue flight.

Some of the airlines might *say* they'll do that, to try and make the rest
of us feel better. But in real life, that's never going to happen because
they know that the first fat slob that gets charged for 2 seats is going to
sue them, and will probably win. Besides, the poor ticket agents at the
counter aren't going to risk causing a scene when they have to tell Mr. or
Mrs. Tub O' Lard that s/he needs two tickets to fly. The agents don't care,
they're not going on the airplane, so why should they make life more
difficult for themselves? They're not.

Besides, if you haven't noticed, there's more of *them* than there are of
*us*, so why should the airlines bite the hand that feeds them? They won't.

However, I think you're well within your rights to insist that your
armrests stay DOWN.

On that particular point, we are in complete agreement.
