I love a pilot with big landing gear, Pumpkins. Like the yummy Yannick, that AC fly-boy with the hair-trigger Twitter finger. When a pax tweeted a complaint to head office after being delayed on the tarmac at YYZ for 20 whole minutes (sounds like an average Pearson touchdown to me), Yannick replied from the cockpit, explaining that ground crews were temporarily grounded due to lightning.
All good, until Yannick’s Gallic temper got the better of him, and he added – “You just flew across the country in 4 hours. Shut it.”
Oh Captain, my Captain, you took the words right out of my mouth. So many whining staff, so many perky PR boasters, so many right wing pundits. And 2 well chosen words can deal with them all. SHUT IT!
You know what I’m a gonna do, Pumpkins? I’m going to book a berth on the Ezra Levant Freedom Cruise, I’m gonna wait until Ezra gets all foamed up about pinkos and pro-choicers, CBC apparatchiks and multi-cult leaders, and I’m gonna stand up – and in my heels I really stand up dahrlings! – and I’m going to scream SHUT IT!
Damn, girls, I feel better already.
And, dahrlings, I also feel a bit relieved to learn from a relatively reliable source that Mr. Jenkins will not likely be putting down roots on this side of the pond. His tenure at itravel2000 is likely to be relatively truncated – possibly only until a new owner is settled in. And, who do you think that might that be, my curious Pumpkins?
