yeap.. taken from wiz's blog... way to go, british airways!
scene took place on a BA (British Airways) flight between Johannesburg and London. a white woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man. obviously disturbed by this, she called the air hostess.
"madam, what is the matter," the hostess asked."you obviously do not see it then?" she responded."you placed me next to a black man. i do not agree sitting next to someone from such a repugnant group. give me an alternative seat."
"be calm please," the hostess replied. "almost all the seats on this flight are taken. i will check if another seat is available."
the hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later.
"madam, just as i thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. i spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is also no seat in the business class. hoever, we do have one remaining seat in the first class."
before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued, "it is not usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class. however, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting."
the air hostess then turned to the black man and said "therefore, sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first class."
at that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

all apricots reserve their right to be eaten
all peaches plead to be savoured
and the apricots and peaches agree that together, they make the perfect dessert
and indeed, they did.
