I'm worried about the bloke who has a picture of 737NG flight deck on a coffee cup.

WTF?!

Yeah, true, in my haste to hang sh!t on the Blunderbus yet again, I let my dignity slip a little.

Still think there should be two stubby-holders aside, as per the 777.

But the end of the day, it's just another tube where you're going to be bombarded with:

- lack of humidity,
- noise,
- cosmic rays,
- ever-diminishing salary,
- hours of the same old boredom,
- some weirdo next to you,
- the same old boiler hosties whinging,
- etc

How will greater fuel efficiency make it more fun?

Are they coming equipped with afterburners? I don't think so...
