Apr 6th, 2009 at 1:30PM: It always starts with a drunken model. Always. Cover girl Sarah Hannon was beyond furious when awaking to find her boyfriend, Daniel Melia, engaged in a "sex act" with the woman next to him. It sounds like he had a middle seat and liked it! Hannon fell asleep on a nine-hour flight from Bangalore to London, as anyone would hope to do on such a long flight. Oh, and having bent elbows with boyfriend ...

In the grand scheme of things, Britain, you've got things pretty nice.

Apparently there's a potential market of 25 million middle class Indians who may be willing to do so. This desire is being catered to by a "native village" built in Hessargatta, just ...
