I cannot begin to tell you how many times I saw Muhammad Ali connecting through CVG. Always smiling and knodding to his fans. No autographs...a few pictures.

I have been on flights with Gold Medal Olympians, professional sports figures and politicians.

I have seen music and movie stars at the airport with, and without, security.

They all put their pants on one leg at a time like you and me.
