On My Way to Chicago

OK, I've been wasting my pre-flight time all these years - Uncle has taken me into the Maple Leaf Lounge pre-flight and it's pretty swank. And there's free internet (a subject of a previous airport rant). And free food. And an open bar.

One annoying thing though - United (our carrier) has completely distanced itself from the superior Air Canada check-in. They had perhaps a quarter of the staff and no kiosk. Meant that we had TO WAIT to check-in.

The customs guy asked me what Tom Waits was like - I balked and mumbled something about Country, Rock and Roll and German theatre. He's "going to look out for him". Uncle agrees it's a difficult question.

Love to tell you more, but I couldn't bring my Guinness into this area.
