I'm on a flight from Cincinnati to LA. As I got on the flight I noticed a number of people sniffling, obviously sick. As I sat down, I thought, "Damn, I'm lucky to have avoided getting sick over the holidays."



To my right there was a woman who was fidgeting quite a bit. She kept messing with books and her bags. I didn't think much of it.

After a while I started to feel bad. I got a headache and my throat started to close up. I feared I was getting sick. I drank tons of water and tried to rest. I couldn't believe that after I left the cold weather I was catching a cold.

The plane landed and I got ready to leave. I heard the fidgety woman start to murmur what sounded like baby talk. Than I heard a distinct 'Me-ow'. I turned to look and saw that she had cat in her carry-on bag. A cat! I am terribly allergic to cats. This woman had assualted me with her biological weapon, the cat.

What happened to putting pets in the hold? America is on the decline.
