Left GSO on a jet plane and let me say, Bush sux. At first they took our toothpaste and we said nothing…

American Airlines seems to only be willing to feed the folks in first class these days. Back in 2001 when I started travelling regularly to San Francisco, I thought ATA was an airline that reminded me of a prison train. Well, compared to what American Airlines is today, ATA was a luxury liner.

Hell, you couldn’t even BUY an in-flight meal. It wasn’t even an option. If Homeland Security prevents you from taking drinks onboard, the airlines need to step up and start feeding their passengers on cross-country flights.

Very piss-poor.

The issue of lotion is a pain since it too is banned from carry-on luggage. My wife came up with a novel idea. Use moisturizing lip balm. If you get a tube with coco butter or the like, it makes a great lotion for your hands a least. Just rub the stick on your cuticles and palms.

Also, by using this, it is kinda like sticking it to the man.

Once we landed, we ate at HOME.
