JetBlue flight attendant loses it; Levi for mayor

One way to leave a job: Former JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater lost his temper after a passenger accidentally hit him on the head with luggage on the ground at Kennedy Airport on Monday, police said. After the plane parked, he made his triumphant getaway, authorities said. What's triumphant? After chewing out the passenger on the plane's public-address system, Slater grabbed a beer and exited using an emergency slide. Police found him at home in Queens, N.Y. A New York City judge granted him bail. And you can "like" him on Facebook.
