Dutch police arrest a drunk US pilot

Police in Amsterdam say they pulled an American pilot from his planned flight because he was drunk. They say his blood alcohol content was recorded at just above legal limits. The man was fined and released.



Grounded

It seems that the Dutch
Don’t think very much
Of pilots who get themselves drunk.
So they made an arrest
Gave one a blood test,
Which, you guessed it, he happened to flunk.

Since they found he was tight,
They canceled his flight
And levied a rather stiff fine.
They say he won’t fly out,
And hope he might dry out,
For the sake of your safety and mine.
