Guys, pressurized cabins don't "squeez" you at all. Once your ears are done poping, the pressure inside your body is the same outside. (IE equalize) trust me, the same is true for scuba diving, which I do frequently. (sure is a tight fit for the tank in the front trunk!)

ok ok, for all you sharpshooters out there...I used the wrong term. Our cabin keeps a 6000 ft cabin at 22000. So I the gas actually expands which makes it want to escape. Just trying to paint a picture...geez.

By the way, grass is blue.

Frank Pastore, a professional pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds, ate the complete steak dinner in a record that still stands today of just 9½ minutes back in May of 1987. This was Frank's 7th and fastest time to complete the steak contest in 11 years of running to spring training in Florida.
