The best way to fly... off the handle

There are very few things (in fact, I can't think of another) I would label as magnificent. That's just not a word I use often mostly because, used more often, it would lose its significance. That said, I found one this week: Steven Slater's exit.

"JetBlue flight attendant Slater made his great escape via a plane's emergency slide on Monday afternoon after a scuffle with a passenger. The passenger reportedly cursed at him and dropped a bag on Slater's head. Slater took to the airwaves, saying a few choice words over the plane's intercom and announcing, "It's been great." He then grabbed some beer, his luggage and slid off home. Those plane slides always did look like they'd be a much more fun way to leave the plane than walking down to the tarmac." ~ Washington Post
