WOMAN KICKED OFF PLANE FOR POKING SNORING MAN

A woman was kicked off a Southwest Airlines flight out of Chicago on Thursday after she grabbed a pen and poked the man snoring next to her. The incident occurred aboard a plane headed toward Boston. The 64-year-old woman was trying to silence Lenny Mordarski, 68, as the flight was taxiing down the runway. Mordarski awoke when he started feeling pain in his arm that he said felt like stinging bees. Mordarski complained, and the poking passenger was removed from the flight and booked on a different flight. Firefighters were called in to evaluate Mordarski, who later admitted that he “might have” fallen over onto the lady while sleeping. Mordarski suffered ink marks on his shirt. The flight was delayed at Midway International Airport for two hours.

* Firefighters were called in to evaluate the guy? “Oh, yeah. He’s snoring, all right. Real loud, too.”
* How bad did the guy snore? Bad. When he inhaled the plane’s flaps went up and down.
* Then a grizzly bear tried to come on board to mate.
* Usually on a plane, you can’t hear people snoring ’cause they’re drowned out by the crying baby.
* See? The pen isn’t mightier than the sword after all.
