:::flying

this talk of flying back to chicago had me thinking about airport security in this post 9.11 world. in the past 12 months i've hopped on a plane at least eight times. during those times i've had to take my shoes off twice (both times at midway), flown on a half-empty plane once (two weeks after 9.11), and've been witness to passengers applauding upon landing. i know there are still people out there that won't get on a plane. as long as you stay away from no-fly zones and america west, there'll be nothing to worry about!
