Leavin' on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again
Oh yeah, mom...about us thinking we won't be able to fly home for Christmas, well...I'm kinda sticking to that plan now. Yipes. And somewhat related. Did you ever notice that Oklahoma City's two airports (Will Rogers World Airport and Wiley Post Airport) were both named after men that died in plane crashes?



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Quoting John Denver and talking about plane crashes. Robyn, we need to sit down and discuss this, child.

Sigh.

I'd rather take my chances in a plane for travel than a car. Quicker, fewer crashes, and I don't need to be at the wheel.

Don't worry about those travel plans just yet...there's still hope!

Oh believe me, the John Denver irony was not lost on me either...

That's just lurvely. Now they're going to be searching our keys too? Pretty soon it'll be like, oh sure this looks like a regular naked body, but when you push his nose, a switch blade pops out of the ass crack.

I'm all to aware of the irony of our lovely airport's names...

Us Okies may not have a reputation for being the smartest---but that's one smart/observant airport inspector to pick up on that one.

Robyn, don't blame you for not coming home, but dang I miss you. Can't blame your mother for wishing she would wake up on Christmas morning and find you two with a bow around your neck sitting under my tree. Okay, you're too tall to sit under the tree---how about standing beside it? And, like in the coffee commercial, where the son comes home and surprises his parents, I want mine with cream, no sugar. :o)

Watch your mail for your and Todd's (belated) birthday presents.

Holy cow, I hadn't even heard about that yet. I tend to feel pretty comfortable at Will Rogers but this just goes to show that it can happen anywhere.

Mom, I don't think you want me making the coffee. That could get pretty scary! ;-)

Yeah, but there is no friggin way that someone wielding that tiny thing would manage to successfully take over a plane any more. People would rush him and beat the living crap out of him before that even came close to happening.

What scares me more is that we don't adequately check the baggage that is under the plane.

Oh dear. I have a little knife in my bag like that, a swiss army knife. They come in handy. But I won't be carrying it onto a plane and I won't be making it look like a key!

Yeah, that combined with the whole terror alert thing that's supposedly gone up for the holidays just means I don't want to go anywhere anytime soon. :\ Yuck.

That is scary. I hadn't heard about it either. It is rather ironic both airports are named after men who died in plane crashes.
