Pack a parachute in your carry on luggage. If you're flying southwest you can just jump out the whole in the roof.

What a rough day today, a tire on my car blew out today on 95 & lake mead in summerlin at.70 mph luckily a roadside assistance van stopped by and helped change my tire and gave me a little gas

I still feel good, I'm getting paid tomorrow so I can begin putting money away towards a new place, also settled a great payment plan with my best buy credit card, so I feel good today

What good is it going to do in the carry on luggage? I say wear it. Freak everyone out, not just the TSA.

Twenty five years ago I got on an airplane in Rochester NY behind two good sized dudes wearing parachutes. No middle ground. I been around airplane a lot and while not a jumper I have on occassion worn parachutes while playing acrobatics. Those guys were wearing parachutes.

I pointed it out to the chief flight attendant who I knew. She reported it to the Captain. He said they could wear whatever.

I expect that is still the rule today.

And when you think about it - that may be OK. Practically how are they going to get out?

Are there any planes with those rear drop down stairways still in use?

While walking Stripper one nite, my ferret, we encountered a big Siberian Husky outside City Center, the dog caught sight of my little ferret, thinking he was going to have a "late nite snack", but it ain't never gonna happen!

For a Husky, that would only be a bite or two!

Yes. But getting the stairs open from the inside, isn't that easy anymore.

Red face Lady Liberty stamp shows Vegas replica

What happens in Vegas, not only stays in Vegas...but it goes on the postal stamp, too, lol-too funny!




"It turns out that a first-class stamp featuring the Statue of Liberty actually is based on a photo of a Las Vegas replica of the statue"
