We're off to Skopje tomorrow. I must say recent threads have left me less than thrilled with the prospect of 8 or so hours aloft. I apologize for the rhyme in advance. Eight hours of knee to neck In that time a body will wreck For this frequent flier They'll need a plier To extricate her in Zurich

To S. Fowler: If eight hours turns you to toast Just pity us on the west coast After twelve hours or more On the plane, I'm so sore That I feel like I've been sent by post.

Betwen patients or out of boredom I find I click on Fodors Forums It began after an Email from Abate That a Forumite hurled verbal karate His reputation hurt-His pride was trashed Maruo doubleclicked his address book and dashed The thread grew long and Fodorites whined Thank goodness that debate is long behind. I sometimes click on USA And quote temps and highways California way West Coasties arrivals are based on time In Lotus land the sun always shines We love to zoom from mountain to coast Then dine, stroll, shop and check the next post. Lately there have been fat debates The airline codes that make us wait The crying babies and smokers we just hate And where to honeymoon with the new mate. We razz eachother about whats under those kilts And tease the Brits about veggys that wilt. Then there's so many questions about what to wear Will the Pope still see me if I have purple hair? Do the gypsies take Amex or ride British Air? When in Prague can I rent a Corvair? There are some notes about spam in my box Or whether or not Nutella rocks. And just what should I see when in the Loire? Don'tcha read road atlases any more? Why, if I wear short shorts am I treated like a whore? Does that Chunnel reach from shore to shore? Can people fry their hagis or eat them with Smores? Should I rent a Renault with 4 or 2 doors?

We've been planning over a year, For our trip to Italy. Reading numerous guidebooks, mapping out the sights tio see. I've found Fodor's Europe forum to be very helpful, Asking questions and getting advice. Even though some people like to b**ch and moan, Most people seem very nice. I can't wait to see Rome, And then visit the Pope. To get a Papal blesing, If we can get tickets...I hope! My husband will serenade me, In a gondola in a romantic canal, Venice will be the favorite, For this very lucky gal. We'll be onto Florence next, Visiting Museums and the Duomo. We'll see David and the Uffizi, I can't wait until we go.

These are really funny. I'm no good at writing them so does anyone have one about the maggot on the overhead compartment story?

What was the maggot in the overhead compartment story? I tried searching on "maggot" but got nothing.

Oh, it was one of those "my worst airline experience was worse than your worst airline experience" threads. I reckon it was late winter-early spring. For some reason I think it was a story about an arrival in Puerto Rico, but maybe my memory is creaky. It was kinda like a Poe story, as I recall it -- dripping, dripping from the overhead compartment, complaints ignored, and on arrival the gross packet revealed itself. It was not in verse, however, and I look forward to seeing what the worst minds of Fodor's can do with it.

As memory serves me vaguely: it was either a thread with people complaining about airlines, or the worst place/thing one has ever experienced. I think there may have been some mention of Haggis (pre In-A-Tube (TM)), however it was not a maggot thread.

D.B., Haggis-in-a-Tube(TM) is disgusting enough without mentioning it in the same sentence as maggots. I say we make a pact and not get involved in this.

Okay, like I have anything better to do: There once was a lady named Ginny Who reached for the overhead binny But instead of her baggot She got a faceful of maggot And a vomit bag left by a ninny.

A homophobe rather egregious, touring the small town of Sitges, espied quelques faggots, declared them tous maggots, and now in the forum she preaches.

Good show DB. Elvira posted the location separately but in case you missed it, Martha, the original story was under the heading "What is the most unpleasant thing that happened to you in Europe?" It was about a trip on Saggot Air in Spain .

Here we go again: When in Paris you must be aware, that when swimming you should not dare. For a man who plays tag, may think you're in the bag, and will ruffle the young & the faire.

There once was a man Mr. "C", Who wanted to go to Par-ee, Since it was during school, Some folks called him a fool! All HE said was..."Say-la-vee!"

There once was a Cindy-named lass Who asked which threads were a gas So I searched and I found (It was awfully far down) My favorite thread from the past
