I read the most bizarre story today on Google News. Apparently if an elderly or ill passenger dies on a British Airways flight the corpse is moved to First Class to avoid "distress in economy". The airline (and probably other airlines too), has no other way of disposing of the body while in the air. This, of course, conjures up various silly situations in the First Class cabin, like:
Air Hostess: "Would sir like white wine or red? Perhaps a little water? (Reminds me of Shelley Berman's "Coffee, Tea or me"!)
Purser: "Would sir like duty free? Ah, sir is resting. Perhaps later."
Air Hostess: " Salmon or trout sir? Mmm, not hungry, I see."
Purser: " New York Times or Funeral Forum , sir?"
Barney, a businessman, nudges cold neighbour: " Like a blanket buddy? You're turning blue."
Joe: "Great bed uh buddy?"
I'm sure fellow Joeusers can do better than this. "
