ps.com... Eh, why not sacrifice a couple of goats? I know plenty of Christians who pray before a flight. Who am I to criticize another man's religion? Because by praying, you're trying to effect outcomes of the unknown or things that you have little control over. It would be like praying for your engine to fix itself as opposed to having a certified A&P look at it. Marco |

Marco Is there anything in the story about the goats that states that the airline isn't taking other actions? |

KATHMANDU (Reuters) - Officials at Nepal's state-run airline have sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god, following technical problems with one of its Boeing 757 aircraft, the carrier said Tuesday. I wonder what the Boeing service manual says about this? You're ......wait for it ......"kidding", right? BTW, sacrificing two goats is the accepted procedure for fixing... .....wait for it.... gyros! Paul-Mont :-) |
