I think you just made the Guinness Book of World Records in something.<br /><br />2) "Ma'am. As far as I know, you're on that plane." Did you ask her whether you'd get arrested when you got off this imaginary plane for using your cell phone on the flight?<br /><br />3) Good for you for thinking of your luggage! When my flight was canceled at Christmas and they kindly rescheduled me, I didn't find out until I arrived in Baltimore that I had participated in "voluntary separation" from my baggage.<br /><br />4) Also congrats for NOT crying. I'd have been in tears long before losing my keys.Antelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09662381986963688962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279920339896233708.post-22936730606046607932009-07-30T17:41:52.188-05:002009-07-30T17:41:52.188-05:00Wow!

I have to tell you- AMERICAN AIRLINES CAN SUCK IT!! It seems I'm not allowed to travel with out getting screwed over at least twice. <br /><br />Last year on my annual trip to Boston- I got fired the day before, my plane broke while I was on it, the next plane broke (thankfully on the ground), we got snowed in, there were no more flights til next year. I ended up taking a flight to DC and then a 9 hour train ride to Boston. And no, don't tell me that train should have taken half the time. Did you know anything about express? I didn't, and neither did the person who bought my ticket. <br /><br />PS- I fell your pain and you definitely deserve a beer now!Graygrrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07423394839497455624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279920339896233708.post-69767191696237386942009-07-30T16:38:15.988-05:002009-07-30T16:38:15.988-05:00Oh, wow...I'm sorry about that!

In the middle of a thunderstorm.<br /><br />I love my brother, but this story still makes me laugh!<br /><br />Welcome back!Chris Goochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14634227282244052213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279920339896233708.post-21070288746614963092009-07-30T15:38:17.016-05:002009-07-30T15:38:17.016-05:00omg. dude. i just want to hug you and pat your hai...omg. dude. i just want to hug you and pat your hair and give you beers.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287792370490363047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279920339896233708.post-17654573350753530592009-07-30T15:28:05.143-05:002009-07-30T15:28:05.143-05:00yeah, at least you didn't get a stranger's...yeah, at least you didn't get a stranger's boobiejuice on the part of your body with the most access to your mucos membranes.<br /><br />lol @ jayCrystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383214103702764400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-279920339896233708.post-27786039888683382722009-07-30T14:32:38.203-05:002009-07-30T14:32:38.203-05:00I once had a baby puke on my head within the first...I once had a baby puke on my head within the first hour of a 10 hour flight to Newark.
