Don't assume you're the last smoker on the planet who wants a butt at the end of a 4-5 hour flight. I've waited that long, a few minutes more is tolerable... for me. > > >If you've flown much you know the first baggage checked is the last > >baggage off. > > If you've flown much, you don't check baggage at all. > That works great going to Hawaii. A little tough to carry on what you need to travel to a less temperate climate or for an extended stay. I've shipped stuff to a hotel a few days in advance. They'll usually pick it up and store it, no charge.

Fly First Class... they'll usually have a cart to drive you to the next gate if they think they'll have to comp you for missing a connection. Plus, you get off the plane first! I don't think many people enjoy hanging out in the airport. Just for the record, how is a sloth a MFFY? Doesn't the sloth designation indicate they're going *slower* than you? I suspect everyone is going slower than you. I used to be like you, Type-A, wound up tighter than a 2 dollar watch and the biggest asshole you can imagine. I got professional assistance because I wanted to change... and it worked... (most of the time). Cost about a grand and took just one session to begin to calm down. Total of 8 weekly sessions. I highly recommend it. > > > >Duh-uuuhhhh. > > you're drooling. > Perhaps... but you're foaming at the mouth. gpsman |

Ah, but if you hurry and push/shove your way off you get the pleasure
of waiting just that much longer at the baggage claim. I've never ever found the baggage waiting when I got thee. Harry K |

You know the guy that you would have given a ride except for that he's dirty and sticky and you just plain don't ride with creeps. |
