Airline comedy in the works
Bob Cohen options 'Dysfunctional Flight Attendant'

By Michael Schneider

As thousands of Americans take to the skies this weekend -- after being subjected to those controversial security checks -- TV vet Bob Cohen sees a comedy there.

Cohen, whose resume spans from PBS and KTLA to Barris Industries and Palladium Entertainment, has optioned the rights to the novel in blog format "Diary of a Dysfunctional Flight Attendant" to turn into a scripted series.

The book, penned by Ellen Simonetti, takes a look at the humorous and surreal world of the pilots, flight attendants and crew that make up the airline industry.

Long Time No Post

Hi All, it's been a while, I know. A lot has happened. My computer crashed back in Sept, then I went to San Diego for a week for a great energy medicine workshop (intending to work on my screenplay while I was out there--that didn't happen), then I came back and had my dear friend Gina visiting me from Costa Rica, and now it's already time to gear up for the holidays, and I'm doing a lot of travel this holiday season :)

Meanwhile, I've finally picked up and reread Act I of my screenplay, and of course I hate it! So, I'm rewriting it...at least the beginning. I think what I wrote before was only amusing to airline people.

Anyhow, people keep asking me about my case with my former employer. All I can say is the matter is resolved. I'd like to thank my lawyers, Kevin Fitzpatrick in Atlanta, and Gary Bledsoe and Walter Muse in Austin, for a GREAT job!!!

Now back to writing this durned screenplay...believe it or not, Ricky Martin, my gay boyfriend, has given me a lot of inspiration this week! ;-)
