This is completely off the subject, but does involve a famous person.

Whilst on my fist solo XC to Ocala, I was waiting for my proof of landing paper to be signed whilist the woman behind the desk was working out a special calculation.

John Travolotas jet was due in to have the toilets pumped, as Ocala don't have a lav truck they were thinking about pumping the slurry into an open truck. She was trying to work out how much slurry the 27 people on board would have produced to see if there truck was big enough.

My suggestion was to use a dumper truck.

:D
