My brother yesterday just sent me a news article about his usual flight from Moscow to DC - which was delayed earlier this week by 54 hours.
He wasn't on it thankfully, though he's actually been through worse.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

I've never had trouble tranferring through Chicago, or going in or out -- it's Atlanta that is my bete noirport.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Atlanta and I are pretty good friends at this point.
O'Hare and I are not friends. We're like coworkers who really don't like each other, but are forced to interact, but occasionally one of them (O'Hare) does something to sabotage the other (me).

O'Hare = evil. Though the light tube tunnel can be amusing for like a nanosecond.

This is my question, too. Dear work, I am attending a loud concert filled with power chords and flame pots tonight. I. Don't. Care. about revision marks right now.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I seem to be the rare person who doesn't mind O'Hare. But when I was in college, home-to-school trips always started with a bus ride to O'Hare. So I got to know its quirks early on.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Will this cold ever end? Cough. Stuffy/runny nose. Late for work again due to NyQuil coma.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't know that I've ever flown through O'Hare... maybe once? I guess I should count myself lucky.

Trust my rage
O'Hare - in my experience, is the king of cancelled flights and major weather screw-ups. Atlanta, on the other hand, is the land of consistently, but not hugely, delayed flights. With Atlants, I'm always late. With O'Hare, I might get there the day I originally intended and I might not.
