JetBlue Sued Over Flight Spent In Toilet

A New York man who says he was denied a seat on a five hour JetBlue flight and was instead told to "hang out" in the plane's bathroom has sued the airline for USD$2 million, saying he suffered "extreme humiliation."
When Gokhan Mutlu arrived to check in for a JetBlue flight from San Diego to New York in February he was told the flight was full, according to the lawsuit filed in New York State Supreme Court.
But Mutlu was allowed to board after a JetBlue flight attendant agreed to give up her seat and travel in an airline employee "jump seat." It was not clear in the lawsuit whether the flight attendant was working.
However 90 minutes into the flight, the pilot told Mutlu the flight attendant was uncomfortable and he would have to give up his seat and "hang out" in the bathroom for the remainder of the flight, the lawsuit said.
The pilot "became angry at (Mutlu's) reluctance" and said Mutlu "should be grateful for being onboard," the lawsuit said. When Mutlu volunteered to sit in the "jump seat," he was told it was reserved for airline personnel.
At one point, the plane experienced turbulence and Mutlu sat on the toilet seat without a seat belt, causing him "tremendous fear," the lawsuit said.

Have you wondered what twitter can do for you? Have I bugged you to sign up for it already?!
Basically it is going to be a real fun way to communicate among friends, coworkers and so on. I see limitless possibilities with it and I enjoy twittering. Sometimes I am in the mood to use it often, at other times nothing important happens that I have to share so I remain quite. But I still enjoy what others that I follow have to say because I can find an interesting blog, witness a fun interaction on the interwebs or really just whatever.
BUT, I want to start seeing more and more friends use it, so check it out, sign up then follow me.

Back to topic and see what Twisney is about, I will just copy from their site;

Friday 5/9 - Exclusive Disney Preview and a "Find me (Scott)" contest

Today's the big day that me and the fam head out to WDW for an extended Mother's Day weekend. This was supposed to be my private beta test of Twisney before the big release but... :) as many of you already know word has already gotten out. No worries there, I'm glad everyone is liking it so far.

Let's try to have some fun with this - how 'bout a "find me" game? First person to find me in the parks will get a free Twisney t-shirt and, of course, we'll take a picture where you find me and post it to Twisney.com. I already know a bunch of people that will be in the parks this weekend so this could get interesting. I'll be posting Friday thru Tuesday to Twisney.com and I'll kick it off today with a picture of me (update - just posted the pic). I'm user scottsan. I'll be easy to find. Just look for the 30-something exhausted-looking guy with bags over his shoulders pushing 2 strollers or chasing after the kids. If you see me, just say "hey, are you Scott from Twisney.com?" Now, with 100,000 people across 4 parks, what do you think? Is it possible to actually find someone? I guess we'll just have to try it and see.

and from Buzzwatch a WSJ blog:

If you want to understand how citizen journalists armed with cellphones are going to change the world–and create challenges and opportunities for businesses–spend a few minutes at Twisney.com.

What you’ll find there: Live updates from ordinary people walking around Disney World, using their cellphones to share their experiences with anyone who cares to take notice.

Balloon joy

Back in January on a pretty cold day after much hesitation I had headed to an event I didn't know much of. After bundling up I headed to Columbus Circle. It turned out to be a pretty awesome afternoon chasing some balloons.

Can't get enough of this? Here is the CNN footage.
