Planning on buying people a lot of new phones/cameras? US law says taking pictures of people in public is legal. (The TSA doesn't like that; they lose.)

Want privacy, fly private.

There were probably 100 cameras that took your picture between your house (or hotel) and the jetway - security, traffic cams, parkign grarages, every 50 feet in the airport.

Plus you probably aren't that special that anyone would want to buy your photo.

It was a good call.

Maybe after seeing this thread, airlines out to create a small retractable/ folding foot rest somewhere up there

Interesting cultural observations. Yes, I'd rather have socks up there than shoes.

I don't understand people in the US who walk around with their shoes on inside their homes. I have to constantly remind non-Asian friends of mine to take their shoes off when they come over. NYC sidewalks are full of dog excrement and I don't want that crap all up in my house.

Shoes on the bulkhead seem nasty to me. I think socks are generally much cleaner than the soles of a shoe.

Like cooking all our meat until it was so dry and tough that I never knew what a good steak tasted like until I left home

Oh and to make my point.....we were all very healthy. I know genes played a part......two healthy people got married and had kids and in the 50's did not run off to the doc every time one of us sneezed

As he was getting up to leave the plane upon landing in SAT my mouth dropped when I saw the tag on his backpack. It proudly announced to the world he was a Delta Diamond Medallion level member. Goes to prove what my mother told me, "Wealth and status don't equal class."
