Fudruckers only counts if you have the cheese sauce...which the airport locations don't seem to have. The cheese is terrible for you, but it is awesome. :-:

I'd always been cool on fast food burgers including In'n'Out until I had one "animal style." That is the best that I ever had from one of those places and I have been to just about all of them multiple times (except only once to Whataburger).

Whataburger quality does depend a great deal on location. Some are certainly much better than others.

I find the burgers to be awesome, but I find the fries to be .

We ended up with cheesesteaks instead of Chinese tonight. For as much as I wanted pork fried rice, a provolone with and Old Bay fries did not suck either.

In-N-Out's fries are tremendously salty, but that's part of their appeal.

One of the guys bought some fries "animal style" and I thought that they also were pretty good. I guess that I just like "animal style" anything.

I have never tried fries that way, but I guess I need to investigate (I can walk to a location ).

I generally keep my iPod and phones in my pockets to avoid them getting crushed by my Hernia-matic 3000 (laptop).

I'll need to figure out a plan B.
My plan B is a nice small zipper compartment in the top of my laptop bag made for holding small items like an iPod or phone. I drop everything into it, including my watch and wallet (since it has to come out of my pockets now at airports with the nudie-scopes) and gets zipped up while I'm waiting in line, before I get to the table. After watching a guy almost walk off with my watch one day when it was exposed in a plastic tub, I quickly adjusted my routine.

Anyway, glad you got the iPod back.

It's freezing in my hotel room tonight. Like, so cold that anything that could shrivel up has long since done so.
