If I ever run into a known terrorist...

I swear to Zeus I am going to kick him/her in the friggin shins. We have the liquid rule, the shoe rule, the laptop rule, the jacket rule, the weight rule. Flying is such a royal pain in the neck. It makes me unbelievably crabby but now that I am in my hotel room where I can control our environment I am much more pleasant individual. Speaking of traveling is it just me or is it possibly the most obnoxious thing in the world when the bastard...uuhhh I mean passenger, in front of you pushes or lays their seat back. I mean really, it's crowded enough in coach but to put your seat back is possibly the meanest thing you can do to the passenger behind you. The idiot in front of me laid his seat back for the entire flight from Minn/St Paul to Philly. I snarled at him the entire flight. Too bad he couldn't see me.

On to funnier matters. Saturday afternoon we went to the video store to rent a movie and Brooke and I were discussing how annoying it is to have people mispronounce words. You know the type...Illinois is pronounced with an "s" at the end etc. It is one of our biggest pet peeves. There was a break in our conversation just long enough to overhear a woman on her cell phone. She said, "well, I've already seen that 'Tailgater Nights' movie" We collapsed into the giggles as soon as we were out of earshot. Timing is everything. "Talladega Nights" I never saw it but I do know that it's not "Tailgater Nights" (sigh)
