Shouldn't we have teleportation technology by now?

I have the same complaint! So wrong so often. I played that game last night trying to figure out when to get David. The airlines are horrible. If they were employees they'd get canned.

I actually had fun playing the game this time. I set up base camp in the parking lot of the airport Post Office until around 2:00pm, when my bladder dictated a change of venue. I then waited in the Barnes & Noble in the MOA, until I heard she had landed (Who knew they had a Hello Kitty board game!?!) I then acquired a couple of coffee & chocolate brownies, and hit the airport in time to pick Herself up shortly after she arrived at the kerb.

Best wishes to Herself for a smooth and easy flight in this nasty weather.

The words smooth and easy are not accurate descriptions of either her trip there or her trip here.

I think she's decided that driving to Chicago makes more sense than flying, and takes about the same amount of time.
