New Book from Alec Baldwin due any day now

Apparently Alec Baldwin has lost his temper, again, and gotten thrown off of an American Airlines flight.
Alec Baldwin thrown off AA flight at LAX for 'playing game' on phone - NYPOST.com

He claims it was due to playing Words With Friends past the remind from flight attendants to turn devices off.

On his Twitter account, Baldwin wrote: "Flight attendant on American [Airlines] reamed me out 4 playing WORDS W FRIENDS while we sat at the gate, not moving."

Other witnesses claim a vastly different sequence of events.

Passenger Steve Weiss, who was sitting across the isle from Baldwin, described the scene.

"Apparently he said he was playing a game, but he was actually talking on the phone. She [the flight attendant] was very nice. The door was closed they just announced that they were pulling away from the gate. He got up threw his papers on the floor stormed into the bathroom slammed the door closed, beat on the wall and then came back."

"He said 'If you want to kick me off, kick me off.' He was just crazy, he just flipped out, the guy has problems."

A rep for Baldwin said, "Alec was asked to leave a flight for playing Words with Friends while parked at the gate. He loves WWF so much that he was willing to leave a plane for it, but he has already boarded another AA flight."

LOL - spin spin spin

Baldwin is known for his bad temper.

In 2007, the actor left a nasty voice mail tirade for his young daughter, calling her a “rude, thoughtless little pig.”

He later apologized and wrote a book inspired by that incident.

Taking bets on the title of his new tome.

"A promise to fellow passengers: A journey back to the gangway"

"A promise to Flight Attendants: A lavatory explosion and you"

"A promise to Air Marshals: Don't Tase me Bro"

which one, which one? They all sound so riveting.

The only thing his book could contain that would peak my interest, would be some racy pic's of Kim Bassinger in her early years.

Oh good.

I needed something new to put at the bottom of my list of books to read.

To be fair, past a certain point on the list I stop measuring them in terms of interest and start measuring them in terms of BTUs.

It's winter, ya know.

Cheers,
