Who we all ain't

I was rocketed to Earth from a dying planet. Actually, the planet was OK, but it had no frequent flyer programs, so it was dead to me.

I landed in a field by a major fortress hub and was raised by a kindly city couple who taught me the values of Truth, Justice and the Delta Way.

In time I developed super powers. Among those were:

1) I can fly! In fact, I fly all the time.
2) I can time travel! I can leave Tokyo and 6PM on a Tuesday, and arrive in the United States before I left.

I found my one weakness was the middle seat of the economy section. In fact, any seat in economy causes me leg cramps and severe discomfort.

I also discover that the harmful rays of the economy section can be blocked by a mere curtain -- I then regain my full strength.

My people live on greasy mixed nuts served in small dishes. We refresh ourselves with small, hot towels.

After a youthful indiscretion with United, I have remained loyal to Delta, which provides for my needs.

I suspect there are others of my kind nearby...
