Premium MemberNo Fear of Flying

Bags

...In travel, you may check your bags
But sometimes it is wise
To choose a carry-on instead

    ‘cuz the wind’s begun to blow,

Seat back,
Knees smack

...The flight, supposed to leave at 6
Departed much, much later
And to our few demands, the airline
Didn't really cater.

The reasons why were iffy - 
There was traffic, fuel was low
But explanat...

A Babel of Benighted Psalms

...Death orifice my Libidinous command,
I contras life's ecumenical demand!
Now reach down in this thistle grim,
Desolate me with the edged limb.
Grant this voyeur that glimpse of dead,
