Yesterday´s flight between Brussels and Madrid was my 8th of this year. The airport overdose is beginning to loose my screws. Scene at the Brussels Airlines check-in desk:
- BAH (Brussels Airlines Hostess): "Good morning Sir."
- TM (Tired Me): "Hi."
- BAH: "Any Luggage?"
- TM: "Just this bag, I´d rather carry it onboard."
- BAH (suspiciosly eyeing my bag and seeing it is not bulky): "Is it heavy?"
- TM (worn out of the ritual): "Well, there is a laptop inside, and I´ve got the whole discography of Black Sabbath stored somewhere within it… So I´d say yes, I´d certainly file that under downright heavy, brinking on obesity."
- BAH (looking around in case she might need help): "Sorry?"
- TM (sighing): "No, it is almost weightless."
- BAH (relieved): "Boarding at 11.35 on gate X43. Have a nice flight."
- TM (smiling wrily): "Sure."

JAJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJJAAJAJAJJAJAJA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Certainly Heavy Metal!!!! I Can´t believe it!!
You should take care of those situations. Just remember the guy who went singing some Led Zeppelin and The Clash songs and what happened to him on an airport.
As George Bush would say The War against Terror Must Be Everywhere (not sure if he ever said that but it fits with his obsession don´t you think?)
Great Story, Really.
