No....Maggots on a plane

Maggots falling from an overhead luggage bin has stopped a US plane from taking off.
Passengers were horrified to see the larvae dropping onto an unsuspecting passenger as others began to panic and cause a commotion, US media report.
US Airways blamed spoiled meat in a suitcase on board the Atlanta-to-New York flight on Monday.
The plane was taxiing down the runway at Atlanta's international airport when passengers were told they would be returning to the airport gate because of a "minor emergency".

Spoiled is the word!

Decaying might be a better one.

Yikes! I hate maggots.

^why did'nt you green me ?

**StrontiumDog** · 01-07-2010, 02:41 PM

Can't yet....but I'm spreading as fast as I can....a green coming your way soon....promise!

I would've greened you earlier, for a post in another thread...not just for this single thread

OMG!!! That would FREAK me out. I'd probably scream.

I wanted to green Strontium for saying "yikes!" but i've already greened him recently. How long do I have to wait?

^why not green me while waiting ??

**BobR** · 01-07-2010, 03:24 PM

How did someone get that through security, or better yet why?

Got to be bush meat, we get a lot of that coming into to Blighty from Africa, often crawling with maggots.

What's with the agro? Maggots are quite harmless. Their place in the universe is far more comparable {and beneficial} than our presence might be. Poor little critters - they get a bad name, is all.
