To pee or not to pee?

Strange things are afoot in the American skies... Thanks to the A-pee (ha!ha!) for this contribution of outstanding journalism. Or not.
Airline Apologizes to Man Who Urinated in Bag

SALT LAKE CITY (March 17) - SkyWest Airlines apologized to a passenger who said he wasn't allowed to use the restroom during a one-hour flight and ended up urinating in an air-sickness bag.
James Whipple said he had two "really big beers" at the Boise, Idaho airport. While on a flight to Salt Lake City on March 7 he wanted to use the cabin restroom. The captain had declared it off-limits during the short flight because a light wasn't working. Whipple said he had used the cabin restroom before the plane departed but had to go again and finally reached for the air-sickness bag.
"It was like I had no choice," Whipple told The Salt Lake Tribune, which posted the story on its Web site Friday. No other passengers noticed Whipple using the bag, but a flight attendant asked him about it and told the captain, who called airport police.
Whipple was questioned and took a taxi home to Sandy, a Salt Lake City suburb. The airline sent him a letter of apology and a flight voucher, SkyWest spokeswoman Sabrena Suite-Mangum said Friday.
"You had no choice?" Oh, I see. So you were forcibly coerced into downing a couple of tall, cool ones before boarding?

I do have to applaud this man in his semi-inebriated state for his ingenuity. It beats urinating all over the floor, leaving the airline with a puddle to clean up. And, of course, the bag is "for motion discomfort!" After all, I'd be uncomfortable, too, with a couple of XXL brewskies sloshing around in my kidneys.
