Default I'm in the Delta Crown Room right now, waiting to board my flight...

Seeing as how this is the 5th anniversary of 9/11, and there is at least a 50-50 chance that my plane will be blown up, I just wanted everyone to know that if I don't post for a while you'll all know what happened. I do feel some comfort, though, because I spent the entire weekend watching the first 3 seasons of 24. If there are any terrorists on my flight, I am fully prepared to go all Jack Bauer on their Mediterranian asses. Bring it on!

I think the appropriate question is:

"Can I have your watch when you are dead?"

I want his pension fund, insurance policies and other liquid assets. You can have the tangibles, unless of course he has a spare Rolex or Patek Phillipe.

Well, I made it to my destination with nary a terrorist sighting. What a disappointment. At one point I thought I'd spotted a potential terrorist, a swarthy guy with a suspicious look in his eye. I went up to him, poked him in the chest, and told him I'd be watching him. It turns out he wasn't even an arab, just a small guy with tanning pass. Even so, you can never be too careful.

I walk around the airport and randomly ask people if I can inspect their shoes. I also will never eat the airplane meals until the stewardess samples my food (just to be safe).

How dare you make it to your destination when I counted on your retirement plan to fund mine.

I don't know about your airport, but yesterday in the bathroom of my singles ward people thought it was funny to tap their feet three times.
