The pleasures of gold status... by LthrOttr 2003-08-24 14:31:26
At least on Air Canada... free 802.11b access in the Executive lounge... due to the problems recently (labor on Air Canada's part, plus the Blaster virus [and variants] getting into their reservation system) I gave myself 3 hours before my flight. Sometimes that would barely be enough... today, I blew through check-in, less than 6 minutes to go through US immigration and customs, about 10 minutes for checked bag screen (my suitcases always have to be hand searched... probably due to the leather, rubber, boots, and the pair of handcuffs in them) so that took a little longer. It is fun to watch the security screeners face when they search my bags... *grin*. Zipped through airport security, so now have a couple of hours in the lounge...

Beer and munchies are free, free internet access, and its quiet, with a TV alternating between a golf game (yuck) and CNN News. This is good.

Had a great visit with my spouse... the blackout was unique, and we had all sorts of other things we did together that was fun (even with me telecommuting to my office in California from the apartment each morning).

Ahhh well, back to California later tonight (supposed to land around 10:30 PM UFie time) then home, and back to the usual tomorrow.
