Flying Nude

There's already too much carry-on loading going on when you fly. This will just slow down disembarking that much more:

A German travel firm, OssiUrlaub, is taking bookings for a nudist day trip from Erfurt, Germany, to the popular Baltic Sea resort of Usedom. The trial excursion is planned for July 5.

The plane's 55 passengers will have to remain clothed until they board, and must dress before they disembark. The crew and pilots will stay dressed for security reasons.

...

Kohler says one has to be a fan of nudism in order to truly understand how liberating it can be to soar above the clouds in the buff.

Germans — even those with corpulent bodies that have long since succumbed to gravity — have long enjoyed nude sunbathing, which is permitted in many public parks. Stripping down is a tradition that runs especially deep in the formerly communist eastern part of Germany, where being nude was regarded as a cherished expression of freedom.

There's even a name for the movement: Free Body Culture.

But the idea of nudist flights begs some questions. Where will people strip down? And, more important, what about the cleanliness of the seats?

"People will just take off their clothes when they are in their seat and not at the airport," Kohler says. "And we will hand out towels with our logo so that people can put them on the seats."

Apparently that's the preferred way to describe an uptick in burglaries.

For the Stoners in the Crowd

You know, I bet that if you crumbled a bag of potato chips into tiny tiny pieces, you'd be surprised how little matter you actually have.
