Vacation: Day 1
Left home where it was snowing...arrived in Tampa where it was raining. Traveled on a plane that had just been pre-disastered with a lightning strike.
I asked for a hot tea. When the stewardess (a Cythina Stevenson double) handed over my the tea I was initially worried. The water was bubbling. I thought we were flying without cabin pressure! After all, no one would bring you boiling water on a plane.
I was wrong. We did have cabin pressure. And my water was more than hot.
I asked for a cup of ice. She was prompt, but handed it to me over my shoulder.
See it coming? Yep, a picture perfect causal relationship...
As I turned to get the cup the guy in front decided to shift his middle-linebacker shoulders. Hot tea hits my thigh followed by an involuntary release of the cup. The ice falls in my lap and I've spontaneously developed my own icy-hot.
She asked if I'd like something else to drink.
