Some profound questions at the airport
by Mike S. Adams
June 5, 2005
I love to fly. It's a time when I can sit back and prepare for a speech (that is my usual destination), think deep thoughts, and fine-tune my sarcasm. As you can imagine, a lot of deep questions pop into my mind during air travel. Fortunately, I manage to keep those questions to myself. But, today, I have a really bad altitude and I feel like letting them fly. Sadly, the following questions and comments came from just one day at the airport and on one flight to Cincinnati:
Sir, will you please wrap it up? There are other people in line, here. I know, sir, but all seven of your bags are over the fifty pound limit. Yes, I know you don't FEEL like paying the extra charge. Well, if your wife doesn't speak English, why didn't YOU call about the weight limit instead of her? It isn't Delta's fault that your wife can't speak the language. Ma'am, did you just call me a *******? That was in English, wasn't it?
