Southwest Airlines and the Mini Skirt
Say what now? Southwest Airlines employee acting like Osama Bin Laden’s “fashion” police when they tried to prevent Kyla Ebbert a 23 year old student and Hooters waitress from boarding her flight to Tuczon. Ebbert was “caught” by the “morality” police oooppps sorry I meant she was wearing what customer service attendant identified only as Keith as inappropriate.
Kyla Ebbert arrived at Lindbergh Field wearing a white denim miniskirt, high-heel sandals, and a turquoise summer sweater over a tank top over a bra. The picture shows her actual outfit at the time she was deemed inappropriately dressed or lack thereof if you ask the “fashion morality police” of the Osama type. Geez, I can’t believe this is happening in this day and age were women dressed more scantily than what she was wearing.
It seems that Southwest Airlines has a tendency to enforce their “dress code” judging from this blog, which I quote:
The airline that once booted a passenger off a flight for wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the words Meet the Fockers—it had pictures of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Condoleeza Rice— is making travel fashion headlines once again.
Kyla Ebbert a paying airline customer says she was unfairly judge and humiliated at being asked to step out of the plane and told to change her attire. Since she was traveling briefly to her doctors appointment she had no luggage or extra clothes and had she not stood her ground the attendant would not have relented. This after she was given a “lecture” to pull her mini skirt down a bit, pull up her tank top a bit and told to return to her seat. Ebbert says several flight attendants overheard the conversation and, after an embarrassing walk down the aisle, she took her seat and spread a blanket over her lap. Now if that is not humiliating and embarrasing I don’t know what is…….. unless you ask that convicted welfare fraud Khatib whose embarrassment seems out of place… like in a jail.

this is unreal, you know it doesn't surprise me thou, just last week I was asked to take my blog off the air.
Ps. cute girl
Jeeez... what happened to the Bill of Rights?
Sorry for not visiting often. My wife and I have started a program to tutor public school students. They also use my pc for their reports and research thus limiting my blogging time. I'll try to visit more often.
TO ALL
I know this to be out of place. Please bear with me. I just want to create awareness by choosing the busy forum or the latest.
Do consider Dr. Martin Bautista for the next elections obviously (a senatorial candidate of ‘Ang Kapatiran’ together with Adrian Sison and Zosimo Paredes). He’s a 45-year-old gastroenterologist in the US who came home after 17 years. You can see from his background that he truly means service. For those who find him to be a hypocrite for working abroad, do understand he’s a family man who needs to sustain his family, that he will be able to keep his independence by not relying on public funds to support his family. He helps his countrymen in his capacity but it’s just not enough for there are millions of Filipinos. It’s a good start in Philippine Politics to have him and his party around.
I urge you to forward/text/inform all your contacts about them. I believe they only lack exposure that’s why I’m doing this. But I can’t do it alone so I’m appealing to everyone’s help. If all will inform their contacts about them and urge them as well to forward, we might hit a million.
We cannot afford to be indifferent now if we want meaningful change. Otherwise we only have ourselves to blame. BUT TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Hmmm, seems cool.

Remind me, never ever to fly Southwest. I might just be so inclined to buy skirts with a hemline an inch longer .....
