Swedish pop star kicked off US

Here is where my story gets interesting. There was this college age kid that had that grunge rocker look and he asked the agent if his suitcase and guitar was on the plane that had now started its taxi for take off. The agent told him yes his bag and guitar was on the plane but would be held for him until he got to MIA. This gut goes nuts, he starts demanding the plane be returned to the gate so he can get his guitar, the agent told him that was not possible and his guitar would be fine.

After a few more words this kid tells the agent "I want my guitar back now! as far as you know there could be a bomb in it". I was thinking , fella you just said the wrong thing. I was waiting for him to be tackled by the airport police at any moment. Nothing happened. The agent heard him make the statement to her but she completely ignored it. I don't know why she ignored him but she acted like he never said it. That kid has no idea what a favor that gate agent did for him that day.

I've always wondered why she didn't have him arrested and the plane returned to the gate. Maybe it was her last flight before getting off work and just didn't want the hassle.

Isn't this against FAA/DOT regulations since he was not on the plane? I believe his baggage should have been removed per the regulations.

No it isnt since MIA is not an international destination. All baggage going on the plane has been screened and only International flights have positive bag match required by the FAA.
Also as far as the agent not responding. Maybe she was deaf. I work next to a guy who cant hear a thing (it seems unless he wants to) and some of the responses he gives the passengers to their questions are hilarious. He had a lady yelling at him one day (just trying to get his attention, not screaming mad) and he didnt hear her at all. I finally had to tap him to get his attention.

ABBA

Why did they breakup?

My my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Knowing me knowing you- Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
there is nothing we can do, knowing me knowing you- ahaaaaaaaaa
We just had to face it this time we're through
breaking up is never easy I know but I had to go
Knowing me knowing you it's the best I can do!

They broke up shortly after both couples divorced, and the blond one is a bit wacky. They tried to get them all in one place a few years ago but she didn't show because she is terrified of flying. They are HUGE overseas to this day... ABBA GOLD is always on my Ipod.

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

I used to think they were saying "You'll be dancing once again, like a plane, we'll land, sing a new song Chiquitita".
