Things I Saw Or Did in Airports and On Airplanes This Week
1. Fat 8 year old wearing a belly shirt and some clunky heals.
2. Multiple commuters on Southwest Flight 1049 from PHX to LAX on August 1, 2009, which was my first day commuting back to work after a two month hiatus.
3. Discounted See’s Assorted Candies at the CNBC News Stand, marked down to $9.50 from 16.99 (and I got it with an employee discount as well!)
4. Mr. Droopy Drawers – the guy who can’t keep his pants up because they are too big on him, the belt isn’t tight enough, and his undies are showing! It’s even funnier if they are running through the terminal, towing a mobile home
with one hand, and holding up their pants with the other.
5. The guy (or gal) that decides to wear every piece of metal clothing they have to the airport…bracelets, earrings, chains, rings, belt, shoes, built into the pants, the top…do they also have a metal plate in their head?
6. A lady traveling with her toddler and carrying 4 carry-on bags plus a bag of food. When she deplaned, all the foodstuffs were all over the floor.
7. A man who had some type of surgery on his throat, and his bandage wasn’t covering it correctly, and I could see inside.
8. Somebody farted at LGA (LaGuardia Airport, New York) and caused @FlyAArmy to be delayed 1h15m and me by 1h.
9. A 6 year old boy wearing purple Crocs.
10. An EXCELLENT Crew on United(@UnitedAirlines) Flight 384 from LAX to LAS on August 4, 2009. I couldn’t have been more pampered on a 42 minute flight over the mountains!
