And yes he was taxiing on the runway at taxi speed, it wasn't like it was still in a deceleration state on the runway.
Extra mileage pay for the AA crew

Maybe the Delta Capt was former Braniff or had a parent that was. Comes around goes around.

The guy sitting on the plane behind me who divulged his entire medical history for all to hear. This included the high white blood cell count due to the many cysts, one in particular that was painful because there was so much pus. Then there were farts. Perhaps the most disgusting person I have ever seen

I tried to be a beer buddy to some older guys in my neighborhood, but it became too depressing due to the non-stop bad health talk.

I'm trying to create an area in my brain that will prevent me from doing that when I get that old. Like a mental alarm clock. "Don't B & M about your health; it's boring, gross, and nobody cares."

Oh come on now, it's not all that bad.
Make it a game and try to one-up them like I do.

You had an oversized cyst that was filled with pus, well I'm still waiting from my right testicle to drop.....Checkmate!

"Dude, a Cist?? That's nothing, I've got irritable bowel syndrom and anal leakage, here, look in my diaper!"

That will usually shut them up...
