Folks, if you've nothing to do today and still have power, take a look at this. It is one of the funniest complaint letters I've read and concerns the food on Virgin Atlantic airlines. I'd post it but without the pictures it lacks something. Keep in mind this came from the Expat, a British newspaper and written by a Brit so the syntax isn't quite what we're used to.

I don't think I'll be flying to Idia any time soon. Not that I'd ever go there anyway. :roll:

From what I read, the complaintant recieved a job offer from Virgin to choose the food on flights.

The penis mightier indeed.

I wish I could snag you a video link, but I am at work. So, to some it up, Weasel is quoting one of the Jeopardy! parodies from Saturday Night Live. Sean Connery intentionally mispronounces categories and gives bogus answers just to be offensive, in this case mispronouncing the category \"The Pen Is Mightier...\"

If there isn't a video link before I get a chance, I will post it for you.

Yes it was intentional. And well played on getting the SNL Celebrity Jeopardy reference TLR.

This should be a good link.
