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! |
