So I turn up at the airport......
 

... on my way to Florida for a conecting flight to Costa Rica and I go to check in.

They wont let me on the plane as I am on 'THE' US shitlist.

I thought I would get to the US at least and then be OK as it was a conecting flight straight out again.

I argued for about 2 hours and ewalised its not going to happen - I didnt think they would stop from even flying out!!

The guy was actually ok - and he says I can appeal BEFORE I fly and my name should be taken off - as the thing that put me on the list wouldnt be illegal anymore, but he just couldnt do anything at the time.

So I went and bought a new laptop and a 30in monitor to make feel better - it sort of worked.

and I am going to Aus (via Asia!) next month - but I am still pretty fucked off.

So what were you on the list for? :)

dont let the man keep you down

time to start flying privately bro... www.exclusivecharterservice.com ask for Adam, tell him LilBro sent you

Damn thats got to suck

I 'assisted' an HIV+ friend of mine into the US by sending the drugs he needed when he got their by post from the UK.

This was back in the 80's and there were all sorts of crazy rules about HIV+ people enetering the states at the time - if he had been found carrying the drugs into the country he wouldnt have got in. So I had to send them to him.

They were crazy times.....

Its good to know I can get off the list though..... I really want to see the US.

net jets :thumbsup

netjets rips you off...and they have a small fleet of planes plus they sell membership. much better to go with a charter company...

at least something works

This time - shame it didnt in 2001 when the real threat entered the US

That sux:(
