The award to the serviceman's family exceeds the Phelps family assets.

Whatever. I'm just glad they got sued. They are abhorrant, though I am torn on the right of free speech thing.

I decided against making this story its own thread:

Sex on a plane? Not if airline can help it
Singapore Air to ask first-class passengers on A380 to refrain

SINGAPORE - Singapore Airlines, the first operator of the new Airbus A380, has dashed the hopes of sexual thrill-seekers planning to engage in amorous activity aboard the world's biggest jumbo jet.

The carrier said it would ask passengers on the A380 to refrain from sex while ensconced in one of its 12 first-class suites, which boast the world's first airborne double beds.

"All we ask of customers, wherever they are on our aircraft, is to observe standards that don't cause offense to other customers and crew," the company told Reuters in a statement.

"Nothing different applies for our Singapore Airlines Suites customers."While private, the double cabins are neither sound proofed nor completely sealed.

Singapore Airlines, the world's second-largest airline by market value, started commercial flights of the double-decker A380 last week with a Singapore-Sydney service.

"So they'll sell you a double bed, and give you privacy and endless champagne and then say you can't do what comes naturally?" Tony Elwood, who traveled with wife Julie in a suite aboard the inaugural flight, told the Times of London.

"They seem to have done everything they can to make it romantic, short of bringing round oysters," Julie said. "I'd say they shouldn't really complain, should they?"

I'm going to go with the opinion of the actual parents on the "hell freezing over" comment.

And I'm going to stay out of it - especially since it now seems to be a sides-choosing issue. Yuck.

I read the post, it affected me, I posted how I felt - good enough for me.

Is it just me, or is the LoT running R e a l l y . S l o w l y ?

Good.

I'm delighted that they copped the fine, but saddened. Proclaiming God Hates Fags (and singing God Hates America) etc is just wrong. Hate speech is wrong, and should not be allowed or tolerated. Saying "God Hates America" - isn't that what Al-Queida (sp?) says all the time? Don't they also believe that God hates Fags?

I think religious freedom of speech crosses too many acceptable boundaries nowadays. (sorry for the soapbox, but that kind of behavour (ie the demonstration) is truly despicable.)

It isn't to do with the 14,449 replies, is it?

*falls over*

The bad news - Ken has to make two more runs tonight (in order to wipe out the old carport storage too).

The good news - BTD is our new best friend, otherwise we'd have been pulling an all-nighter.

The best news - we're finally home in time for the Celtic new year. It's a good Samhain.
