Dear airlines that think it's trendy to install touch screens on seat backs: it's not. Yes, this really did happen.

Today's cameo appearance features Rusk!

Heh, I can relate to this, that's one reason I usually choose a seat at the end of the row. That and I can put my seat in whatever position I want (minus the downside, I don't get any "chicken or beef" question at lunch anymore, only take whatever is left). And that's also a reason I choose the remote to control the screen, after hundreds of people before me used this thing, the screen can't be called "touch" anymore, more of a "punch-screen"

P.S. Shiera is also in the caber toss league? Certainly looks like it :)

Why the airliners don't put back movies during the flight? Cost less that all the electronic toys ?

LionkingCMSL • 08/03/2014

Of course the railroading lion doesn't fly. :=3

I support the industry that I love, you're not stuck in a metal tube with annoying passengers, as there is always the lounge car, and the dining cars serve real meals. :=3

One of the other benefits is as soon as I'm seated I can pull out whatever electronics device I want and start using it. Amtrak has also installed electrical outlets at every seat row, so you don't have to worry about your battery running down. :=3

"Suplex" is quite a new vocabulary word to me.

Never heard of "bejeweled" either.

Poor Wolf. hugs him more comfortably

That is going to leave a mark on Wolf.. OW OW!! Also.. where did she learn that move?

Kael Duranus • 08/03/2014

Poor wolf... That move hurts. Still the best airline I have flown on as far as built in entertainment goes was Qantus, flying to Australia.

Rusk • 08/03/2014

In my defense, bejewled can be pretty addicting.

Vanbael • 08/03/2014

I guess as a school teacher you do have to know how to handle children. Also, I agree with Rusk, Bejewled is highly addicting.

Jan • 08/03/2014

Looks at own Bejeweled stats I've spent HOW MANY hours playing this game?!!

Michan86 • 08/03/2014

My god that would be annoying

Muddypaws • 08/03/2014

Poor Wolf; he should be grateful her hand-lock isn't any higher ;-)

As for the touch screens - The fiction of movie "2001", hits home.

Sanx • 08/04/2014

Oh... Poor Wolf... XD

Sonic Wolfe • 08/04/2014

Ummm I think that black wolf must be me...... <.< >.> And I did manage to crash that Inflight entertament system (was playing Chess)

I think what I hate more than the tablets on the back of your seats is the EXTREMELY annoying people using there laptops in the seat's next to, in front of, AND behind you. TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK!... Okay, I'm one of those people too. But I'm quiet and calm about it. The rest of them don't have a reason to being typing. I'm an author, I have a LEGITIMATE reason.

Hi LionkingCMSL,

I too love the RR industry and have had many pleasant trips on Amtrak as well as on local freights where I live and work. Ha! I work in aerospace in QA engineering, but I still love trains. Also Bejewled is a really terrific and addicting game, have played it many times, one time played for 4 hrs straight without realizing it, boy was my eyes, brain and fingers tired.

Wolf must have the constitution of Wile E. Coyote. Ah well, at least he knows not to try things he saw on Mythbusters at home. It looks like he tries it at someone else's home instead.

Further proof that a lioness is stronger than a wolf.

LilFluff • 03/28/2016

Hey, don't talk to loudly about it or they'll start charging a, "back massage," fee as soon as the passenger behind you touches the screen once.
