Anybody who travels a lot accumulates these funny stories. This was a good read.

I was on a plane flight more than a decade ago from New Orleans where it was discovered that a passenger had lice. They moved those people who were sitting next to the unfortunate lady to the back seats with me. The flight attendant said they would fumigate the plane after we landed in Houston. My head felt a sympathetic itch for the rest of the day.

We came close to a mid-air collision during the landing and had to quickly pull back up and circle the airport.

There’s more, but I’ll leave it at that.
