Man set world record for taking 135 flights in 1 month
Did anyone read/hear this news story? Mark Malkoff just spent 1 month living on airplanes. He took 135 scheduled flights in 1 month, courtesy of AirTran.

<i>With two bags of toiletries and clothing, Malkoff slept on the plane alone at night and used baby wipes to stay clean. In the morning, he'd take a jog in the aisles, then wash his hair in the airplane bathroom.</i>
You can hear the interview by Scott Simon via the link I posted above.
The only time he took a "shower" was when he was hosed down by the firefighters on a tarmac in Flint Michigan. Let's just say I'm glad I didn't have to sit next to him.

I wondered who is that guy that can take a month off work, or maybe he's unemployed? Oh, so he is a comedian and a writer.
Comedian - this explains that subsidized month on the planes
As for being a writer... anybody red anything written by him? Anybody knew he was a writer?

<<< I assume he slept at night on transcontinental flights; not on stationary empty airplanes. >>>
Nope - to quote "Malkoff slept on the plane alone at night". Besides AirTran is a US domestic airline
