Flatulence forces plane to land

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/newsletter/mu-html/sns-ap-plane-passing-gas,0,3862526.story?track=mostemailedlink

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- An American Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing Monday morning after a passenger lit a match to disguise the scent of flatulence, authorities said.

The Dallas-bound flight was diverted to Nashville after several passengers reported smelling burning sulfur from the matches, said Lynne Lowrance, spokeswoman for the Nashville International Airport Authority. All 99 passengers and five crew members were taken off and screened while the plane was searched and luggage was screened.

4. There is an expression in French: "To fart higher than one's ass hole"

I don't remember the phrase in French, sorry. But the sense is, "To blow hot air" or "To make grandiose, pointless statements."

But that doesn't answer whether it was Rove or Limbaugh, does it?

5. Unless you call it a dead heat.

Every time I see that clip of Rush making fun of Michael Fox, I figure he is rolling one into the seat cushion.

My bet is on Rush!
