Franklinsanity

8:27 am, Idlewild:  Always amused there is no free WiFi at JFK, at least in this terminal.  Also gives me a hearty chuckle that charging stations, or outlets of any kind, are few, far between, and absolutely tiny.

I love being in close proximity to people desperate for power.  It’s electric.

BTW, I finally actually listened to the “watch your baggage or else” PSA that always plays in every US airport.  Will unattended baggage really be “destroyed?”  Who picked that word?  Google tells me that the various meanings include “put an end to the existence of something, by attacking or damaging it.”  That seems extreme.  I also note that “destroy” appears to be used with regard to animal euthanasia.  But luggage?

And how do they do it, exactly?

Meanwhile, I have finally indulged in some Dunkin’ Donuts.  Back when the kids were small and we lived in Brooklyn, when we visited CT, I would wake up with the babies and take them to DD for a treat – and to get myself a massive iced coffee.  At this point, fried pastry and large volumes of watery coffee don’t really float my boat (SF’s getting to me).  But today I figured “why not?”

Now I am actually looking forward to the airplane food – which, in fairness, is pretty good on Virgin.  And in fairness to DD, the little shack-like structure with canisters of coffee that’s in this terminal isn’t really their finest franchise.  Still, enh.
