October 22 - Mid Atlantic

Well, welcome back to reality.

My worst nightmare came true on our flight home. It was an eight hour flight from Frankfurt to Toronto. I had just settled in, when a drunken sloth with terrible body odor sat next to me. A more annoying cretin you could not imagine in your worst nightmares. For some reason, that only his demented mind could imagine, he thought I would be his best friend during the flight. He kept putting his stinking breath in my face in an attempt to get my attention. After twice politely telling him to stop annoying me, I lost it and told him to F*Off. That worked for about an hour.

During this time, he kept whistling and snapping his fingers at the flight attendants for more beer. I don’t blame them for cutting him off. Unfortunately, as the alcohol kicked in it got worse.

For some stupid reason, he started flaying his arms around and came close to elbowing me in the head twice. On his third time, I grabbed his elbow and told him, in no uncertain terms, that if he touched me there would be serious consequences. He apologized like most drunken assholes do when they play the victim. Thank God he passed out shortly thereafter.

I give high marks to the Lufthansa crew. They handled it with upmost professionalism, although I’m sure they wanted to strangle the idiot.

There will three more posts to come. One is a collection of random notes that I made during the vacation, there will be overall review and links to photo albums.
