Friday Humor – Mayor of First class
One night on a late night flight from Houston to Hartford I was sitting in first class. This was in the late 90’s when it was fairly easy to get an upgrade.

One morning I was on a long flight back to Houston. There was an attractive middle aged lady sitting next to me. We got a conversation going well before take off. Read more
