because she missed her plane. She was crying and yelling all at the same time. The flight attendant tried her best to calm the lady down, but her efforts were fruitless.

I got off the plane and proceed to US Airways customer service, where I waited my turn to speak to an agent. When it was my turn, the same lady from the plane, burst in front of me, still crying and complaining about how she missed her plane. Waa! I thought.

Now, high dive diving boards are being systematically removed from public pools because of the FEAR that someone will get hurt. Even thought statistically in the last thirty years, less than ten people have died from diving off the high dive. Another ridiculous trend is happening in playgrounds.
