This is the burning question that is keeping you awake at night is it.

Why not the "$100 bowl of soup",

Whatever floats your boat Phil.

or the "$100 lightly-buttered toast"?

Whatever floats your boat Phil.

Why the hell would anyone want to tempt fate by stuffing
themselves full of a big, greasy hamburger and then go flying?

Why the hell would you tempt fate by climbing into an airplane
and hurling yourself down a runway and into the air.

Better yet.... Besides you.... who cares.

Here's an idea..... Next time your about to go flying why don't
you forget about a bowl of soup or toast and eat a couple of
pieces of X-Lax instead...... Then go flying.
