Here I sit in LAX, borrowing internet from some elite travelers money club, waiting for my flight to Dallas and beyond, and I always run out of stuff to do.
Thoughts from LAX terminal 60:
There is a machine 100 feet away the sells iPods and iPod accessories. When did this happen? When did buying several hundred dollars of electronics become an impulse buy? Someone should looking into that before spending like that ruins our economy.
The 20 male something five seats down from me is reading Watchmen, and is about half way through. I wonder if he likes the movie better.
Two nice southern ladies couldn't believe that this Eee is a real lap top. They thought it was the most darling thing ever, then remembered they saw one at the wal*mart.
Apparently, there is no master list of who is flying on what airline for the day. I only know this, having arrived at the airport realizing I did not know which airline I was flying on, or even a real idea what time my flight takes off. You would think a list like that would be handy for catching the evil terrorists and helping out stupid people like me.
No shop here sells orange juice. Not even the heaven of delicious, Cinibon. How can you sell cinnamon rolls and not sell OJ? If I wanted nasty smelling coffee however, they could totally have hooked me up.
There is carpet peeling off the ceiling.
Peeling off the ceiling is strangely hard to spell.
Last time I was in LAX I met a cure Lion trainer. I am having no such luck this time.

I bought my tickets yesterday for a flight this morning. I was too distracted this morning trying to figure out how to travel with a suit to remember to check my itinerary.
Plus I'm a fucking moron at times.
I usually just find a bar, and watch some sports on TV.
Last year, I watched these two 20 somethings hit on this lady that had to be in her 40's. They were all smashed, and it was hilarious.
Sleeping.
I do find that getting drunk in the airport makes things ten times better.
They're scary, hopefully I will never be on a plane
good story

they have all sorts of food and computer stuff and you can order food from computers in the waiting areas and servants will bring it right to you
Same place as Houston.
this keyboard is smaller then my hand, at least I had most letters right.
Orlando - Wasn't bad, airport was quite pleasant because it was a month after 9/11
San Antonio - Hit or miss, empty or fucking ridiculous.
DFW - Fuck it.
Love Field - 's alright.
Houston Hobby - Fuck it in the ass.
Las Vegas - Always a pleasure
LAX - neat, arrived at 3 am and left at a similar time if I remember right.

the several times I've slummed around the STL airport to pick up people was fine, and people watching is always lots of fun.

It was pretty awesome, but I declined.
Riveting story.
I wish I could remember where that place is. it was damn classy.
I then busted his nuts on draft choices and asked him when the Lions were leaving Detroit for Las Vegas or some other market. He just laughed and then we talked about fishing for an hour.

Actually that could be like a 20 buck fee.
Airport parking sucks dick.
He was pissed off because I tried to watch the sunrise through the window while he was sleeping off a hangover.
I love those big spinny airplane things where you turn the key.
It's the most welcoming airport I've been to so far.
Drink coupon books from SWA for each of us and we slam them the whole way up.
That's about the only benefit to flying. Drinking and hitting on the waitresses.
