You just wont believe this one
Ok this one... well this one is good.
Last night in Memphis we are all buttoned up in our plane to head to Minneapolis. Leaving on time, appear to have a good group of passengers, this will be a nice flight. Our door is buttoned up, the ramp pulled away, engines are coming to life (its a great sound on a final flight heading home). Im seated in row 5, when the guy in row 6, who has been a talker this whole time, says "hey that van might hit us" I say, not outloud, no no they get close, don't worry about it.
Guy 6 "That van is REALLY gonna hit us!"
BAM! right in row 5
We just got hit, by a vehicle as we are 1 minute away from leaving.
It's just unfathomable, that of all these issues I have been having this year. I am halted by a vehicular crash into my plane, into my row on the plane. So get this, The van is the Priority Pet van. Bringing someone's damn cat (I hate cats mind you) special delivery to the plane. The lady driving the van (see what happens with all this women's lib), gets out of the van with the cat carrier in 1 hand, talking to the cat (obviously this cat needs some baby talk to get on the plane...'c'mon your Morris you're gonna be a good car aren't you...yes your such a good cat'). She fails to put the van in park. To busy worrying about a Cat, she fails to put the van in park!~
This is when row 6 guy, initially said "that van is going to hit us". At the point he say the van leisurely rolling toward us. The cat lady, cat still in hand panics and jumps into the driver seat and tromps on the brake to stop the van. 1 problem she missed the brake and tromped on the accelerator, flooring the van towards us and my row 5. This is now were Row 6 guy said "its REALLY gonna hit!" BAM!
The van is shot in the front. Busted front end, busted windshield, broken lady. The plane load of people are in disbelief. The rest of the people on the plane are in harmony with the thought of, damn cat! This is over a CAT. I was comforted to know I am not the lone member of the cat hater club.
To draw this very bizarre situation to an end. Our plane was deemed un-flyable and we were shuttled to a new plane 90 mins later. Fortunately we all made it safe just 90 mins late, but unfortunately so did the cat.
