BMI was bought by Lufthansa around the same time they bought the place where I work. They aren't so bad maintenance-wise. Service is mid-way between BA and EZY.

As an American who has witnessed our plague of obesity for years, I still cannot help but think of Body Mass Index when I read BMI.

That's what I thought too, but it's a meaningless number.

Man, we could do the most pointless thread hijack ever. Airline question to Validity of Body Mass Index.

Anyway, BMI and various measurements are used by all sorts for either nefarious or good reasons (if you invest in insurance companies, you will say "good"..)

Anyway, lets discuss the cuteness of whitetail fawns now. Might as well go full blown with this hijack since we already started.

If you're that squeamish, the BFC is not bedtime reading. Just think Lobster. Or Alaskan King Crab. But my personal favorite is Florida Blue Crab. I've eaten Scorpion, but there's not much there.

Blood? No prob. Being locked in a coffin? Actually been there, done that. Guns pointed in my face? Unnerving, but I made it. Bugs? Will have my screaming, sounding like a 10 year old girl while my girlfriend has to come and save me. Everybody has their big fear, large insects are mine. Some people can't cross bridges, I can't handle bugs.

I do, however, love chicks in bikinis. If we're derailing a thread, I vote to go the bikini route. Image

Oh, yeah, I could go for that. I'm starting to appreciate the idea of Comic Conventions too. On that Vice blog there's a nice little "Easter Egg": two cute Asian girls dressed in maid's costumes. Doesn't get much better than that.
