      Well, Mr. Mayor, since the pink water is so safe, we each brought you a jar full to prove it. Bottoms up.

                        I read Scott's post and was like - uhhh What? Then I checked the article.. then oh yeah this is the BBC, so it's probably like the word pissed so I googled it to make sure. yup..

                        OK all good now.

                          I read the article title as "Plane Diverted because of 2 idiots fighting over a blanket" lol.

                            I thought that it was pretty standard. I didn't put the term in, though, that was the BBC.

                              yeah I thought it was you, then looked at the article.. nope.. not Scott - seriously never heard row used that way.

                              I read the title like "Hawaiian Airlines plane diverted over Blanket Row (as if Blanket Row was some part of some city)" I was thinking - where the hell is Blanket Row, and why is it called that?

                                Seems like more likely it would be a row of seats replaced with blankets and they were fighting over who got to fly in the blanket forts vs. in the normal seats.

                                      I have heard and used the term row in place of the word fight or argument all my life interchangeably.

                                        Police said the man, 66, said he "would like to take someone behind the woodshed for this", which the pilot deemed threatening and then ordered the plane be diverted to Los Angeles.

                                          Police said the man, 66, said he "would like to take someone behind the woodshed for this", which the pilot deemed threatening and then ordered the plane be diverted to Los Angeles.

                                          One spoiled brat of a pilot, grow up already. Oh, wait, Merica doesn't do that, sorry, I keep forgetting.
