SHE fell asleep on a communter train one time, and woke up on someone's shoulder......
She woke up with a startle and apologised to the bloke, and then saw that she had dribbled on his suit....
She never travelled in that same train carriage again.

Ewww, thankfully I never attracted any dribblers. :P

I agree with Kelda. Border's is not a library. It's a bookstore! A book STORE! People talk in the bookstores around here all the time. But maybe that's because this is the Midwest, and Midwesterners love to talk a lot! ;)

My boyfriend and I were in a Borders cafe once, talking about anything/everything and we got shushed by some woman. Apparently people are 'reading' and 'studying' in the cafe (the Borders was about a half-mile from a college) and we needed to be courteous. ???
I thought it was just a store and a store cafe to boot.

I would have given her an evil glare and then said something like "the library is down the street honey. This is a store. So shush yourself. "
What's wrong with some people? It's a store! Normal conversations shouldn't be annoying to others.... IN A STORE! :laugh:
Lordy lord lord lord. ::)

Oh thats sooo funny!!
If flying and the opportunity presents its self I'll try and grab 40 winks if I am seated away from co-workers in case my mouth is open wide enough to catch flies or snore or do anything else which would embarrass me.
With regard to breaking wind when in the air, well its all got to do with altitude and pressurisation all which affects the gut, that and the fact you are sitting in cramped up position for goodness knows how long. No easy solution, visit the restroom or try doing some stretching exercises can help and never ever under any circumstances eat beans.

Oh, and it helps if you can go to the bathroom before getting on the plane.
