Quick Thoughts - Flying

- Have you noticed that you often choose to drink the most uncommon beverages when on airplanes? When else do you even consider drinking ginger ale or tomato juice? Seriously?

- Why do all pilots and crew use the same boxy luggage, piggyback system? Do they know something we don't?... you know... like the liquid pizza astronauts use.

- A most curious observation... I saw a gentleman talking at a pay phone in the concourse, but sure enough he was using his cell phone! I mean, I thought the popularity of the cell phone was mainly due to the convenient, flexible usage. But no, instead of relaxing in one of the Charlotte airport's lovely rocking chairs, he's still tied to the phone booth. Baffling. This proves that we still haven't caught on to the mobile phone idea... That, and using the hands-free ear piece by holding up the mic to your mouth, while holding the phone in the other hand. There's definitely still some work to be done here.
