Friendly skies, ja

I’m not sure why the Lutherans are so easy to poke fun at. Garrison Keillor has been doing it for almost 40 years, and you don’t have to be Norwegian, Minnesotan or Lutheran to get a kick out of them.

Perhaps it’s because Lutheran stories are almost invariably genial and gentle.

(Which must make that stern old reformer spinning in his Wittenberg grave like a dreydel on the fifth night of Hanukkah.)

However that may be, here’s an audio clip from Lutheran Air Lines.

I’m just hoping that none of the passengers in the hot dish rows bring lutefisk. That would probably spark a CS gas-like reaction in the main cabin & cause the oxygen masks to drop down.

Besides, I’m not sure you could get it past the TSA screeners.
