When Did Airlines Get Dress Codes?

Hey Silverhorners! welcome up to Silverhorn Lodge, high atop Silverhorn Mountain..etc etc..

Well it seems that the good folks at Southwest Airlines have taken a bit of an interest in ladies fashions, and have a dress code for their airlines, one that doesn't include short skirts or white tops. Either that or their staff just like to embarrass the passengers to tears....

A 23 year old woman was asked to leave a flight to Arizona because the flight attendant didn't think the woman was dressed 'appropriately' I'm not sure what the actual inappropriate part was, I thought it was OK to wear white before Labour Day....But no, Kyla Ebbert was asked to leave the plane because in the alleged (don't you love it when people use the word 'alleged' sounds so legal) words of the alleged flight attendant,

"You're dressed inappropriately. This is a family airline. You're too provocative to fly on this plane,"

Dressed to provocatively? To fly on a plane? Excuse me, the only reason I ever got on a plane back when I was in my 20's was to see the provocatively dressed flight attendants...I haven't been on a plane in a few years but I shudder to think what the old attendants look like now....it seems they have gotten prudish of late.

So if a short skirt is too provocative, what the heck do they do when they catch a couple in the washroom trying out for a membership in the 'mile high club'?? Open the door and throw them out?

I am becoming concerned about what appears to be a slight shift to a more conservative approach to some things, almost um...taliban like....what's next a veil for all the cute girls handed out just before the inflight movie?

Who decides what is 'too provocative"? That I would like to know..what do they do send representatives to the fashion shows in the spring and fall to track and decide what outfits are going to be to provocative to wear on a plane? What standards do these "monitors of provocative people" (MOPP) follow? I would love to see the manual, does it come with pictures?

Geez I hope that the flight attendants don't get a job on cruise ships, that could make hanging around the pool downright boring.....

If they want to put in a dress code, please include old men in yellow pants and shirts and white shoes and belts....man I hate that....oh yeah, Crocs too...lets get them off planes....and feet...make tires out of them or something....but I digress...

Anyway, it seems that after some careful inspection and perhaps some retrospection, the young lady in the short skirt was allowed back on the plane after she adjusted her sweater. Apparently she had to cover her stomach...since when did a stomach or as we like to say around the lodge, 'bare midriff' become obscene...Marcello has been standing around in a too small t-shirt for years....But Kyla said she was humilated and embarrassed...geez...my lawyer...who I believe was Kramer's lawyer on Seinfeld, would own the airline by the time we got done with the lawsuit.....

I'm think you can find a picture of the provocative outfit and Kyla Ebbert HERE but if you are looking for a provocative sexy outfit you will be disappointed...

In Defense of Britney Spears

Hey Silverhorner's! Welcome back to The View From Silverhorn Mountain. It's good to have you drop in, especially this time of year when the Silverhorn Lodge starts to get a little less busy with tourists. That means I can go back to actually Bar singing kareoke in the Silverhorn Lodge Barinstead of lip synching the words while a CD plays.

Speaking of lip synching....you know where this is going don't you?

Those of you who know me have probably been thinking, why hasn't Bob commented on Britney Spear's latest fiasco at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMA)? Well....what can I say? Our girl Britney, never one to be labeled as boring, surprised us all with what some have described as a less than stellar performance, and those are the folks being kind.

Up until now I have stayed quiet on Britney Spear's performance on the VMA's because it wasn't very good. In fact it was kind of awful, and in deference to Spears, I decided to let it ride...no wait...not climb all over her sexy body...no wait...I got off track...not go aboard of her sexy body...no wait...oh well...I just figured what the heck, leave Britney alone, she knows it didn't go well without me telling her, which probably explains why she hasn't returned my calls.

Britney came out on stage in a black bikini fish net tights and heels. Good enough for me. I liked it. She wasn't wearing Crocs...Someone said she was out of synch with the music and not only can she not sing, she can't even lip synch. I dunno. I had the sound turned off. I am not a big fan of Britney's music.

I will say that the Britster did seem a little off her game in terms of dancing, and to tell the truth looked a little confused at times. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. I know lots of guys who like dumb girls....especially blondes....

However, from what I was able to catch, even the audience felt bad for her and some of them were actually squirming in the agony of her public bombing. So much for comeback.

I said I had decided to stay quiet on the whole Britney fiasco this time and let it go. But, that was until I read some disparaging remarks about her body. I can't let that go because it just isn't right.

I take issue with the folks who were suggesting that Britney was fat, or not in very good shape. I disagree vehemently...which is a big word for strongly. C'mon, unless you are willing to put on a black bikini, fishnet tights and a blonde wig and go out on a stage in front of millions of people and dance, lay off....how many of you among us would be willing to do that? Not many. Far easier to sit home in your fishnet stockings, wigs and Crocs and write disparaging remarks about my girl Britney.

I think she looked pretty good for a bald, divorced, mother of three. At least she managed to wear her panties....and she wasn't wearing Crocs...
