CNN.com - Mouse grounds plane for13 hours - Sep 28, 2005: "MANILA, Philippines (Reuters) -- A mouse upset the best-laid plans of an airline and nearly 250 passengers in the Philippines, grounding a plane for 13 hours while engineers tried to smoke out the rodent.
The plane was preparing for take-off from Manila airport earlier this week when a crew member spotted the mouse scampering across an aisle in the economy class section, the Philippine Daily Inquirer quoted airport officials as saying.
The captain ordered the passengers to disembark while maintenance staff fumigated the aircraft and laid traps, but the mouse was nowhere to be found.
The Doha-bound aircraft eventually took off 13 hours late, presumably with the mouse still on board, dead or alive.
'There was an incident before with a cockroach, but it's the first time that we had to deal with a mouse,' the Inquirer quoted airport operations chief Octavio Lina as saying. "
I can tell you for sure that this mouse was under the influence of Muslim Extremists in The Philippines. He was trained by Al'Quaida Mindinao forces. He was planning to eat thru the fuel lines during flight and blow the airplane up.
He found some illegally smuggled cheese in the baggage compartment and became distracted eating. After that the lazy terrorist decided to take a nap. As far as we know now he is being interviewed by the Democratic National Convention to replace Nader as their head terrorist rat.
The previously mentioned cockroach is serving as Governor of Louisiana and is still undetected by the media.
