Life's story

if it's a flight with a meal, each person gets REAL stainless steel
cutlery adn their own sal and pepper shakers (little tiny plastic
thingies). You get a warm, damp cloth to wash your hands, the seats are
cushier...leather (or is it pleather?), and most drinks are free

Oooh, you'll love first class. We went Virgin to Mexico (my Nan has a

bucket) and it was wonderful! Playstations in the seat! Woo hoo!

They 'upgraded' our seats when they learned we were going home to my
'dad's funeral'. Also, you go to watch the movie with your own personal
headphones at no extra charge. It was a 'red-eye' and I don't know if
that made a difference.

And there are hot fudge sundae's. mmmmmm and sometimes warm chocolate
chip cookies.

Your knees don't hit the seat in front of you either and it's much more
quiet up there.

I think that this is in response to the previous question of "Tell us
how you came to quilting" Some people, did indeed, tell a small bit
about it, others went into long long family histories. The poster of
"Life History" wants the Readers Digest condensed version.---That's all.
RedQueen,---whose story is,

I came, I saw, I quilted.


You want short? The Queen of Everything's Story:

I am, therefore I quilt!

PAT, Q/E

ruffian,
That's nice of you to defend Buddy but so many people were offended by
Buddy's comment...we are close here and most of it is due to our OT posts.
Stop being a "newbie", make more quilts, show and tell, get to know us...we
aren't all that bad! So we like to "talk story" as we call it here in
Hawaii! You seem to like to, too, since this is your second post on this
thread! If not, go access RCTQ on Google groups, search the topic you have
questions on in RCTQ only, and your questions will be answered faster than
reading current posts. A lot of questions do get answered to death, but a
wealth of quilting info is there for you all the time. Aloha!

I don't think Buddy is a troll; just made an observation and a plea
which hit a lot of nerves, triggering referred stimulii to the Guilt and
Justification nodes within the group psyche.

But if Buddy is a troll and deserves a 2.3 with about a hundred
responses, and your post below got a response from only 5 people, a
little math would make your score 0.11 on the Interest-O-Meter, an
allied index.

I personally voted you a 10.0 for originality, however. Unfortunately,
my vote didn't count, my being a newbie and all.

A little bit about sewing and quilting is enough.

I went to a meeting that ended a day earlier than advertised. Packed up, went to the airport, and asked to be put on their standby list for the next plane home. The empty seat was in first class. That was nice, something I would like to become accustomed to. Alas!, it has remained in the "would like" category.

We got upgraded to first class once -- wow! The seats were actually
wide enough for an ample tush, and were leather. Alcohol was free
(too bad DH and I don't drink). Snacks were actually good, and
plenty of magazines and newspapers to read. Too bad I'm way to much
of a cheapskate to pay for that stuff.

I have a friend who was upgraded to first class. He was dressed in
scruffy jeans, tshirt, sunglasses, and tousled hair. When they led him
on to the section full of businessmen in suits, they were all staring at
him. At first he was embarrassed and thought it was because he looked so
scruffy. But when people kept "accidentally" getting close to him during
the flight, he figured out it was because they were trying to figure out
what famous rock group he belonged to!

I think you are a troll too, ruffian, if that is any consolation! and a
troll defending a troll doesn't make him less of a troll in my book!

I don't think even 1st class gets knives these days.

I'd be quite happy to test the theory, if someone wants to give me a 1st
class ticket somewhere (Houston comes to mind, but I also would love to go
back to Germany).

I never understood that. so all it takes for a terrorist to get a hold
of a real knife in a plane is to shell the extra money and get a first
class ticket?
