Escaped Flight Attendant Is Following Me on Twitter

I was on Nightline last night, talking about the allure of Steven Slater, the gay flight attendant who, fed up with an unruly passenger, gave an impassioned speech over the loudspeaker, then went out through the escape hatch.

With a twinkle, I said that Slater is a formidable personage for our time, and I couldn't wait to run home and follow his Tweets.

Well, a couple of hours later, I had a message that SteveSlaterNY was following my Tweets!

And his first Tweet?

"I can't say much right now. But when I can, I have a lot to say other than she was a real c*nt! You would have evacuated too"

Eloquent as always.
