Skiing and Pooping

[Dr Skimeister]

My son when he was about 15 months old, almost 2 years ago, when we were on our way out to Utah, came down with the stomach bug on the Chicago-Salt lake City leg of the trip. Maybe 25/30 minutes out of O'Haire, BAM, projectile puke over himself, my wife, and the guy in the seat directly behind my son Not a pretty site/smell. I actually when the flight was over tipped the flight attendants $20 each for their help in cleaning things up AND gave, what turned out to be the very nice man with kids of similiar ages to mine, $50 for his dry cleaning bill.

That was NOT a good flight

Many years ago when my oldest daughter was 4 years old, we were doing a trip to Germany with my parents and siblings. The whole roots thing to visit relatives on the continent. Anyway, while we were waiting to board the 7PM flight from Newark to Heathrow, my dad fed my daughter a whole bag of gummy worms, thinking he was being a good grandpa. Needless to say what made a projectile appearance an hour or two into the flight.

I must say that the United Airlines flight attendants were super in helping to clean me/my daughter/her mom up. They even took my daughter into the lavatory and washed the gummy mess out of her hair.

Strange. I've been flying on business for 30 years and never saw that. Have heard stories though.

I have seen my share of aerial barfing in my time.

Used to fly into the Rockies on small (50 passenger) turboprops until I wised up to the fact they were big vomitoriums. Better to have a car anyway.

I once had a woman sit down in the seat next to me who immediately examined the complimentary doggie bag. Disappointed, she pulled out a good supply of half gallon ziplock bags.

She filled 3 of them.

I don't miss flying for my job.

I can be a magnet for bad flying stories.

I took a commuter flight from Souix City, SD to St. Louis once that was more like a roller coaster ride. You literally could not stand up during the flight. Drinks were flying everywhere. The 4 folks behind me had never flown before and were petrified. The flight attendant thought it would be a good time to amuse them with sky diving stories. They had to be pried out of their seats with crowbars when we landed.

On another commuter flight, I had another barfmeister next to me with ziplock bags (yes, it happened to me more than once). She was soooooo sick I felt sorry for her. We landed and her relief was visible until I had the unpleasant task of informing her that this was just a stop over on the way to her final destination.
She was puking again before the plane had even left the ground.

No, I do not miss flying at all.

With stories like that who could blame you.

I've only flown a few times, one of the times ties back into the thread topic. We had just backed away from the terminal and started towards the runway when all of the sudden a guy comes running up the aisle towards the bathroom, much to the displeasure of the stewardess who was chasing after him. Turns out he wasn't feeling well and had crapped his pants. Once he was done in the bathroom he tried to go back to his seat like nothing was wrong and insist that he was fine to fly. They practically had to get security to remove the guy. My parents were sitting right behind him and said the smell was horrible. Needless to say that we had to go back to the terminal so that they could unload Mr. crap pants and his wife and kids (imagine telling that story to your friends when you finally get back home :lol: ) and let the cleaning crew come in and decontaminate the plane. It was an interesting way to start a vacation to say the least.

The clean-up crew in full Hazmat suits were interesting to say the least. Quite the experience.

BTW, if you do crap your pants on the plane, tying a sweatshirt around your waist doesn't hide the evidence. Just an FYI...

Did they drop the oxygen masks for you?

Oh good, I was going to complain about another thread hijack but now we're back from barfing to pooping.

Killer segue back to pooping.

I found a Tom Carvel on the top of the tank in a bathroom at Kitchsteinhorn Austria...I think the hypo needle on the floor may have contributed to ....the error. Weird shyt goes on in Europe.
