Lingerie Show at 30,000 Feet
by A word of warning if you're heading to Ecuador in the next few weeks: Your flights within the country might look like a Victoria's Secret catalog come to life (see photo at left).

So much for equality in the skies (though at least flight attendants don't have to diet to keep their jobs anymore).
