Sitting in Limbo

[Dan F]

Just like the Jimmy Cliff song, I'm "sittin' in Limbo"!

I'm on my way to Acapluco from Portland and my Delta flight was full. I got a seat on an Alaska flight (plus a $200 voucher). It is a good deal, as my Delta flight went through Salt Lake City and L.A., my new Alaska flight goes straight to L.A.

The only problem is that I now have five more hours to spend in Airport Limbo. If the darned internet didn't cost $.35/hour I would spend the whole time on MFK...

What do you guys do to pass the time in these kinds of situations?

I believe you, it sounds like you have personal experience in this.

Two big beers have managed to bring me an hour and a half closer to departure, now is the time to chill...

I have been reading quite a bit, but it always scares me to nap - don't want to miss that flight!

In my reading (a magazine called "Science Ilustrated", new to me) I learned that 1 in twenty people have at least one extra nipple! That's crazy, I've never known anyone that admitted to it!

Well, there went another $5.00!
