If Condoleeza Rice can have an oil tanker named after her, and George Herbert Walker Bush an aircraft carrier, what do you name after the Bay Area’s most notorious aging acid queen?

How about an Airbus A320 passenger jet?

Rock singer Grace Slick will join Governer Schwarzenegger, and of course everyone’s favorite hair stylin’ mayor Gavin Newsom on the tarmac at SFO to champagne christen the “Jefferson Airplane”, the first of 34 Virgin Airlines jets to be based out of the airport. The ceremony is being held at Hanger 1054 on Weds morn at 11:30 am, see ya there…

In an attempt to please the blogosphere, the company is opening up the naming of the remaining 33 planes to the public, who are no doubt already filling the comments sections of this post with snide, hyper critical & flame worthy spurts of unrestrained blogtastic venom…

Those who would like to suggest airplane names can do so at http://www.virginamerica.com, those who just want to complain about the post itself can do so just below in the handy box provided…

Entrants to the plane naming contest will be judged for originality, wit and “smile value.”

Commenters on the post here will be judged for length, political correctness, anal retentiveness, bitterness, and somehow working in the word “homophobia”…

They will receive a reward in their own personal “satisfaction”, which by the way is a song by the “Rolling Stones”, not the “Airplane”, although they did share the stage at “Altamont”…
