Midnight at Manchester Airport

[error]

I'm going to Manchester Airport right about now to go pick up one of my roommates. I think his flight is delayed so I may be sitting there a while. In the middle of the night. So maybe I'll have chats with the people in the funny uniforms to keep from getting bored. If you don't hear back from me by 2 am, call the police, find out what jail I'm (or we're) in, and do what you do best.

I'll be sleeping at 2am

Well, that was pretty uneventful. I got nothing worse than funny looks from the people in the funny uniforms. I'm almost disappointed.

News flash: airports are boring, especially at night when empty.
In other news, bureaucrats make for boring conversation...

I recommend sleeping on the benches...much more entertaining.

you can always ramp up the jokes ... they do have their breaking points

Next time bring your laptop.  Show the TSA guys that 'Cool' 10 second countdown flash thingy

Yeah, but it wasn't empty. There were all sorts of people around, what with all the flights coming in. One flight was five hours late. Sucked to be them. Anyway, I guess being confrontational really isn't my style.

Just hold a campaign sign.. and put 'welcome to NH' in front of it.. .so that they don't say you are 'loitering'.

I did speak with several travelers who complained that their disposable lighters had been seized. I told all of them how to get them through the checkpoint.

How?  (not that I ever carry a lighter)

Oh, it's easy. Just leave it in your pocket and carry it through the metal detector. It doesn't have enough metal to set the thing off.
