Do you ever think about when you were a kid and you’d hear about someone traveling on business and it sounded GLAMOROUS?
Courage. Think about the frequent flyer points.
You should try this new service called Airtroductions (http://www.airtroductions.com) - at least that way you could sit next to someone interesting.
Oh, wait, you know those guys.
Never mind.

Hey, it could’ve been worse. You could have been flying to IOWA.
heh.
Yeah Peter, you should definitely sign-up for AirTroducions. I hear it’s really cool!
