Airline Plans To Show Porn On Flights

...better be careful who you sit next to.
If I see a dude with a box of tissues, I'm getting another seat.

I doubt that there is a large enough market to support the porn; however, the gambling idea could be a money maker. I wonder if nervous people tend to gamble more than those that are relaxed.
I guess we could test it by putting people in a plane with gambling devices and have the pilot do some erratic flying.

There you damn capitalists go again. Anything to make a buck.

Reminds me of a joke;

Old Gramps finally talked old Ma into going into town to the x rated movie place. About 15 minutes into the movie, old ma whispered into Gramps ear; "This guy next to me is jacking off". Gramps said, well hell lets move to different seat, to which Ma replied :We cain't, he's using my hand.

A joke I've never heard.

Thanks, Dogman...I'll be sure and tell it at the most inappropriate time.

Even porn wouldn't make RyanAir tolerable. They've taken the Southwest Airlines cattle-car model to the extreme. They can have crazy cheap ticket prices, but can (and do) nickle-and-dime you to death. This is the same airline who was considering building planes with no seats (standing room only) and charging 1 Euro to use the toilet.

They should change their name to GooperAir.
