In response to huge media interest, Ryanair, Europe’s largest low fares airline, today (20 June) climbed high out of bed to reveal all for less than the price of their lowest €1 fare and came clean over the background to the ‘Bed and Blowjobs’ video clip which is now the No. 1 viewed video clip on You Tube.

It's an 18 hour flight from Atlanta. Of course, if I don't get my upgrade, I may be forced to do it. :( Won't make my wife happy either, as she definitely has a business class seat. Platinum Medallion, and she's almost qualified again for Platinum Medallion in six months time. I'm still looking forward to the trip. Four weeks of vacation for me, four weeks of work for my poor wife. But she gets her husband all four weeks instead of the usual one out of four weeks.
