24 Hours of flying = boredom

is it coach or first class?

spoken like a real man. props

have fun on vacation! you could take a bluetooth phone and pilot the plane :wink:

:p:

No no, I’ve flown before many times. I saw the world before I was 2 - my parents thought it was a good idea. :h: And I’ve flown to Florida and Vancouver a couple of times each. So I’ve had my fair share. But I’ve never been afraid of flying because the thought of the pilot catching up on his reading never occured to me. Eh. But I’d still fly. :slight_smile:

I usually just look out the window on planes. I could go for whole flights just staring out the window.

great so now you dont remember any of it lol.

Yup. Didn’t stay in one place for more than 3 months max until I moved to Canada. I think I’ve been to at least 10 countries, some of them more than once. But I haven’t a clue what they looked like, other than from photos.

i did a lot of travel when i was young because i was a military brat, i dont rememer a lot of it. Thouse since grown up i have been around most of the US. The only foreign countries ive been to are canada and nicaragua.

yea, it’s like when i went to holland when i was… four. Awesome place (according to the pictures ;)) but i can’t really remember much of it. maybe i’ll get to go somewhere exciting someday when i can remember it… :slight_smile:

:p:

Lately I’ve been having these episodes with Chinese women (who seem to love to wear skimpy skirts at random occasions :love:**) so I’m bound to see a few on my flight into Hong Kong.

The flight’s gonna have these little games that I’m going to try to get the highest score for (on that plane). That’s one thing. I was thinking about sleeping pills, but I would prefer Ritalin (though I’m not ADD ;);)) if I could get my hands on some…

But yeah, I think I’m gonna spend most of my time reading or sketching or something.

make sure you sit next to a blonde, and have her play a game with you where you get $5 if she can get a question you don’t know the correct answer to, and she get’s $5 if you do the same… but first make sure she’s REALLY dumb…

Best purchase I ever made to pass the time: personal dvd player :wink:

i would stay up really late the night before the trip and sleep the 20 hours away. I could sleep 20 hours with very little effort.

lol

you know what, i was actually thinking of doing that exact thing.

but jeez, buddy, you can sleep 20 hours? that’s ridiculous.

I have flown enough that I can sleep most of any flight. No matter what time of day or night it is. I just lean my head back and I’m out. I actually fell asleep before take off and didn’t notice it this weekend.

i can sleep most places driving, but not flying, i cant sleep at all

If you’re going to read, make sure to take at least 2 different books. I find the same book gets broing after a few hours.

You’ll probably end up sleeping most of the time anyway, so you dont have to worry about being bored :stuck_out_tongue:

i always find that whatever i take to do (books, magazines, gb, mp3s) i always get bored with them, and fall asleep. So its pointless for me to bring them anyways.

:p:

You should try this thoriphes!

I guess you’re not old enough to drink eh? lol

Alright, this is it fellas. Last night in DC. Tomorrow night, somewhere above Canada. Thanks for all the suggestions; in my handcarry bag, I’m bringing The Elegant Universe, Angels and Demons, my iPod, camera, and some batteries. Should be sufficient self enjoyment possessions for my longass haul.

So I bid you all adieu, and a good morrow.

well here is what i do… i get comfy… then i take 2 sleeping pills… i fall asleep in like 5minutes and wake up… if the flish it almost there… i stay up… if it isnt i take 2 more :smiley:
