I once was on a BA flight and we got into horrible turbulence. I was in the bathroom and tripped twice getting to my seat, and right after I buckle up, my friend’s coffee spills and gets all over me, and and old lady nearby nearly faints.Then we take a 100-foot drop, and it’s over.

Hmmm……………….
But I have to say an unripe persimmon someone gave me once.
I felt as if I had eaten a bathrobe.
And whatever you do, never, ever, ever eat wasabi.

I do think the US is very intrusive with that total sh*thead Bush. And you can’t just defeat terror, if you try, it will only strengthen it.
