Congressman Relieves Himself In A Cup On A Delta Flight To Atlanta
ABC News is reporting that Congressman Sanford Bishop (D-GA) took extreme measures to relieve himself on a flight to Atlanta.
   Democratic Rep. Sanford Bishop, flying from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport to Hartsfield Airport on Delta Flight 1717, got up to go to the bathroom after the mandatory half-hour when passengers must stay seated, but found the lavatories on the airplane occupied, his office and aviation sources said.
Sanford then asked a flight attendant for a cup, and “may” have said he intended to relieve himself, his office said.
He went to a section of the plane between the cockpit and first-class, then urinated into the cup, said Bishop spokesman Selby McCash, who described the congressman as “a very gracious and courtly gentleman.”
…After he relieved himself, he waited for a lavatory to become available, and “disposed of the cup,” the spokesman said.

I’m sure the flight attendants didn’t really appreciate him using the galley as a urinal since airline cups are notoriously small…
