People at Straker's wake were talking about a new Canadian airline. The flight attendants pick two teams to roll toilet paper from the front of the aircraft to the back, and then to ravel it up. Whichever side of the plane the winners represent, deplanes first. Personally I think airlines haven't sufficiently explored the possibility, at least on transatlantic flights, of lining the aisles with turf and selling grazing rights to shepherds. All that wasted space with no warm bodies in it.
